Whodunnit

`Who done it` (whodunnit) is a complex, plot-driven literary genre in which the readers accompany the investigators at work and are animated by guessing about the future course. There is also an eponymous game to break the ice among unfamiliar guests at a party. Everyone writes an extraordinary experience or happening on a card before the host reads them allowing the guests to guess to whom belongs each story.

Much like a function between the readers and the plot of a detective story,  a tension arises and stimulates the audience to engage their musical fantasy to interact with the music. I adopted the literary concept to intertwine the musical materials.
