A composition based on the rather confusing "Khinchin Constant", mentioned in Numberphile's recent video: youtu.be/VDD6FDhKCYA

I wanted to try mapping the digits to a chromatic scale - an exercise which poses quite a musical challenge! The fun part is trying to find chords that hold the piece together and keep it sounding musical. I like to think I managed this fairly well, though things do get a bit weird when I shift from an A minor chord to G flat seventh.
