This supporting paper presents a detail analysis of the five pieces in my composition recital program, giving discussions of the idea, composition technique, the computer technique used in each piece. During the process of composing, I kept seeking a best way to integrate the technology and music, giving them a consonant conversation and interaction. Eastern music is also an important element of the five pieces. My goal is to give them the feature and color of eastern music but with a western composition technique and instrumentation.
