This work also features a number of devices taken from Henry Cowell’s theoretical text, “New Musical Resources.” Subsequently, this concert will also feature selections of newly realized versions of pieces from Kyle Gann’s seminal work, “Hyperchromatica” in his 8x8 Just Intonation tuning. The evening will cap off with Clarence Barlow’s work, “Çoğluotobüsişletmesi” for 4 retuned virtual pianos.
