Been playing around and came up with this
4 5 6 4 5 -6 6
4 5 6 -6 6 -6 6 -6 6 -6 6 5 4 -4
-4 5 6 -6 6 -6 6 -6 6 -6 6 5 4 -4
4 -4 5 6 -6 6 5 -4 -4 5 -4 4 -3 4
Repeat
(perhaps in a higher register? Suggest:
7 8 9 7 8 -10 9
7 8 9 -10 9 -10 9 -10 9 -10 9 8 7 -8
-8 8 9 -10 9 -10 9 -10 9 -10 9 8 7 -8
7 -8 8 9 -10 9 8 -8 -8 8 -8 7 -7 7 )
Then
7 -6 7 -6 -5 -6 7 -6 6 4 5 -6 6
7 -6 7 -6 -5 -6 7 -6 6 5 -4
-6 6 -6 6 -6 6 -6 6 5 4 -4
