I am listening to a piece called In The White Silence.
JLA lives in Alaska.
This piece is some 75 minutes long and is most similar (for those who frequent this forum more than Music) to Yasushi Yoshida more than anything.
It is impressionistic and calm.
Clouds of soft sound hang in the air and smaller groups of instruments play for a while before the clouds return.
As it says at Amazon, you can listen for any length of time you like.
It is not developmental in a strict sense.
It is quite lovely though.
"If the light off snow could be heard it would sound like this"

Here is a short video:

You can listen to the long work at the link. It is the 28th August show and I think you will have to listen to the rest as well but I'm not sure.
