Trope,  for 2-channel electronic playback – was an exercise in the manipulation of speech and nonsense syllables. Trope was approach like a work for choir while focusing on the use of canon, cascading entrances, small bursts of sound, and equal division of the octave into ten.

A trope is a word or phrase interpolated as an embellishment in the sung parts of certain medieval liturgies.

Trope was created using the Csound software synthesis system with emphasis on the pvoc family of opcodes.
