Check out the January issue of Whole Earth Magazine for an article of mine on The Microtonal Way, with both CD and book reviews. Yes, the Surogate Kithara was an awful sounding instrument as it sprang out of the instrumentarium of Partch. After Dean Drummond debuted at the old Bang on a Can site in the East Village on E. 2nd with U.S. Highball, I had the chance to really tell something about the qualities of the instruments themselves. Dean and I spoke on the telephone following the performance(s) and I was asked specifically with instruments would do well to be rebuilt and my 2 choices each were rebuilt. I had recommended Scott Hackelman (LA) for the S.Kithara and he did indeed succeed, but I don't know who built the new majestic looking chromelodion. Hey, they listed my Microtonal Bach Christmas Radio Show in The New York Times. Everything is good! Remember that each snowflake is tuned differently. :) Johnny Reinhard Director American Festival of Microtonal Music 318 East 70th Street, Suite 5FW New York, New York 10021 USA (212)517-3550/fax (212) 517-5495 reinhard@idt.net http://www.echonyc.com/~jhhl/AFMM SMTPOriginator: tuning@eartha.mills.edu From: "Bob Lee" Subject: pedal steel tunings and temperaments PostedDate: 24-12-97 17:09:31 SendTo: CN=coul1358/OU=AT/O=EZH ReplyTo: tuning@eartha.mills.edu $MessageStorage: 0 $UpdatedBy: CN=notesrv2/OU=Server/O=EZH,CN=coul1358/OU=AT/O=EZH,CN=Manuel op de Coul/OU=AT/O=EZH RouteServers: CN=notesrv2/OU=Server/O=EZH,CN=notesrv1/OU=Server/O=EZH RouteTimes: 24-12-97 17:07:22-24-12-97 17:07:22,24-12-97 17:06:52-24-12-97 17:06:52 DeliveredDate: 24-12-97 17:06:53 Categories: $Revisions: Received: from ns.ezh.nl ([137.174.112.59]) by notesrv2.ezh.nl (Lotus SMTP MTA SMTP v4.6 (462.2 9-3-1997)) with SMTP id C1256577.00588CEC; Wed, 24 Dec 1997 17:09:08 +0100 Received: by ns.ezh.nl; (5.65v3.2/1.3/10May95) id AA25212; Wed, 24 Dec 1997 17:09:31 +0100 Date: Wed, 24 Dec 1997 17:09:31 +0100 Received: from ella.mills.edu by ns (smtpxd); id XA24964 Received: (qmail 18633 invoked from network); 24 Dec 1997 08:09:28 -0800 Received: from localhost (HELO ella.mills.edu) (127.0.0.1) by localhost with SMTP; 24 Dec 1997 08:09:28 -0800 Message-Id: <01bd1085$a0c4f8c0$825e04c7@quasar> Errors-To: madole@mills.edu Reply-To: tuning@eartha.mills.edu Originator: tuning@eartha.mills.edu Sender: tuning@eartha.mills.edu
