OK, I'm just going to write it out for you...
RIGHT HAND: It's kind of moto perpetuo, like a strumming harp, so, it's just down-and-up 6 5 4 3 2 1 2 3 4 5 6, with perhaps a little 4 3 2 1 2 3 4 thrown in ad lib. It's not quite flamenco, more like a Sciarrino-like fan-like "waving" up-and-down, as fast as possible, and as natural and random as a stream eddy, coming and going streams of thought waters, a backdrop. You will have to have a light touch- the point is to accentuate the guitar's ability to sound more than one sound at a time- in this case, the biggest cascade of voluminous notes as possible, in a free and easy common metre in medium, natural tempo. It is as simple as can be, actually, it just needs to be fast enough to give the "water streams" imagery.
THE PIECE is simply a continuous "stream" of chords. The duration of each chord is up to you, but generally, a fairly even feeling will surely settle in,... I think around 6 "times" (the pattern of strumming), or, 6 to 8, or "4", if that number feels more comfortable. If you like a chord, linger or not; if you don't, you may not skip- but, of course, you may, and/or add chords of your own (please do!). Some of the chords will have durations attached, usually "one time" (meaning, one go around of the strumming)
Each chord should go into the next as invisibly as is humanly possibly. Dynamics aren't specified, but can be creatively employed, if so desired.
THE CHORDS, and how they go from one to the other, is the whole point of the work. I simply wanted to hear one "excellent" chord after another, a string of festooned pearls, an embarrassment of riches! I have either succeeded or failed depending whether you think these chords are worthy, or not. I hope they are. They have all been chosen to keep the prescribed mood going, on and on, always changing but always sounding of the same ethos.
So, before we go any further, do you have your guitar and are you ready to play? Good!
Before we go on, I warn you, I have tried to make this... difficult for you. It is definitely intended for a particular purpose, not least of which may be an answer to the previous piece I was working on, which wasn't very... attractive, perhaps. Here, I have endeavored to communicate more openly, but, with also a tongue in the cheek in terms of difficulty. To play this work properly, virtuosity is indeed required. To merely get through it, one would, I believe, need to at least be proficient. I don't know how one's finger lengths will make a difference, but, you will see that I am trying to make you walk a tight rope.
So.
Have the strumming in mind... here we go:

Well, I haven't gotten far, have I?LOL!! How do you like it so far; where should it go? Those last three chords I just added as I wrote- am I getting lazy, or is it still good?
