This orchestral work derives its name from its structural reliance upon a special mathematical relationship known by the greek letter that denotes it. This musical ratio has a long history of influence in the arts, and its manifestations in the natural world are ubiquitous. You'll note the nautilus shell in the album art...there's one clue for you. You can read about Phi and the Golden Proportion (aka the Golden Ratio or Golden Mean) here:

To help you hear the structure of this piece, I share a poem that is built upon the same structural approach. You will hear Phi in words and music on this episode.
