I've been thinking about how we perceive an accelerando whilst hearing a rit in another voice, maybe some kind of tempo counterpoint. Swapping pitches when the tempo changes direction seems to really helped outline the phrases and gives them a definite start and finish.
i love love love these bell sounds-- super magical, and i love what you're doing with the tempo counterpoint idea-- i think my initial perception of that counterpoint is a feeling of unsteadiness, which i think interacts with these semi-nostalgic bell sounds in a really interesting way. i would love to hear a full piece of just this, i think it's a really rich sound world
