Podcasts about microtonality

A lo largo de la historia de la música el sistema de afinación no siempre ha sido el mismo. En la música occidental la escala actual divide la octava en 12 partes o semitonos iguales. Sin embargo, existen otras realidades de sistematización sonora._____Has escuchadoHyperchromatica. Orbital Resonance (2015) / Kyle Gann. Tres pianos Disklaviers.

Check out this conversation with Aaron Myers-Brooks, Pittsburgh prog guitarist/composer extraordinaire. His latest album, “Oblique,” is a microtonal odyssey exploring various quirky polyrhythms, applications of 17-tone equal temperament, electronic sounds, and distortion flavors. We get an inside exclusive look at the scores to “Energy Shapes”, figure out why one might use up and down arrows instead of Gould accidentals, and talk about “drawing” microtones in the highC program.

“One-Footed” is a piece written by Taylor Brook named after Harry Partch's “The One-Footed Bride'' Just-Intonation diagram. We discuss the aforementioned piece with Taylor Brook and John Schnieder, diving into the ins and outs of writing idiomatically for the Partch ensemble, using Partch as inspiration, notation, and extended techniques on these instruments. The Del Sol quartet played the string parts!

Our guest today is the outstanding recorder player Erik Bosgraaf. https://www.erikbosgraaf.com Erik is a visiting professor at the Krakow Academy of Music in Poland and gives master classes all over the world. He also teaches the famous recorder class at the Conservatorium van Amsterdam, where he himself studied. He is widely regarded as one of the most virtuosic recorder players in the world and certainly the most inspiring, with endless possibilities. His repertoire ranges from medieval music to Vivaldi's Four Seasons and the music of tomorrow. As a soloist, he is regularly invited to conduct the orchestra himself. In today's interview, we talk about the etymology of the word "recorder," the vibe of Amsterdam in music, reading music as an important skill, and Darina will turn into a strange thing at the end of the episode! The piece of the episode - a sonata by J. J Quantz, written for recorder, traverso and basso continuo.

In this podcast I chat with Frank about two pieces of his and about the use of microtones (smaller subdivisions of the scale than half tones) in his music, with digressions into how the tuning system of Western music evolved and his personal use of musical concepts of the XX century like serialism and minimalism. (Serialism - a compositional technique in which a fixed series of notes, especially the twelve notes of the chromatic scale, are used to generate the harmonic and melodic basis of a piece and are subject to change only in specific ways.) ( (Minimalism - a reductive style or school of modern music utilizing only simple sonorities, rhythms, and patterns, with minimal embellishment or orchestrational complexity, and characterized by protracted repetition of figurations, obsessive structural rigor, and often a pulsing, hypnotic effect.) --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/sergio-barer/support

We talk with multimedia composer Hunter Ewen about what it’s like to be alive in the 21st century. Microtonality has lots of potential to be used as a temporal flag, to highlight a sense of off-ness, and to expand the sonic world which we inhabit. We also answer questions such as: how does the presentation of music, and/or extra-musical factors, affect the way we perceive it? And just how many times can we mention John Cage in a single episode?   Music Intro: Venom, Consumption, and Saturation - Hunter Ewen Venom, Consumption, and Saturation - Hunter Ewen Atlas Eclipticalis - John Cage Ultradian Bipolar Disorder - Hunter Ewen Red River Folk Tale - Hunter Ewen Monkey Mind - Hunter Ewen TV Köln - John Cage LEDpaint (pluck) - Hunter Ewen LEDpaint (chime) - Hunter Ewen LEDpaint (bow) - Hunter Ewen LEDpaint (ride) - Hunter Ewen LEDpaint (bang) - Hunter Ewen LEDpaint (invert) - Hunter Ewen Outro: Hunger Dreams in Flocks - Hunter Ewen   Website: http://www.hunterewen.com/main.html http://www.ledpaint.info/   Feedspot’s Top 10 Music Theory Podcasts:https://blog.feedspot.com/music_theory_podcasts/   Support us on Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/nowandxen   Follow http://nowandxen.libsyn.com https://twitter.com/now_xen https://www.facebook.com/nowxen/   Subscribe RSS: http://nowandxen.libsyn.com/rss iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/n… Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1mhnGsH… Stitcher: https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/nowxen Twitter: https://twitter.com/now_xen Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/nowxen/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnmYNMpemAIq8DnK5HJ9gsA

What instruments are good for playing microtonal music and why? Can synthesizers be a useful tool for exploring xenharmonics? And what microtonal scales would be good for beginners to start experimenting? Other topics include: collecting musical instruments, kalimbas and mavila temperament, how well instruments can keep their tuning, hammered dulcimer tuning, building your own instruments (Kraig Grady, Harry Partch etc.), the importance of microtonal guitars, fretless vs microtonal frets, fixed-pitch vs free-pitch, rearranging keyboard layouts, microtonal approaches to orchestral instruments, multiphonics, free synths that support microtuning, using multiple synths vs using only one powerhouse synth, tuning files, tuning software (Scala, Scale Workshop, Tonescape, alt-tuner and others), re-tuning just intonation on the fly using alt-tuner, showing love to developers who support microtonal scales (Pianoteq, Dorico, etc.), and microtonal notation. SEVISH and Stephen also each pick their favorite “top 5” tunings for beginners, discussing notation, performance, chains of fifths, and the harmonic series.

We mention several 20th century composers in today's episode and yet, surprisingly, none of them were La Monte Young. Honestly, how Paws Inc. managed to stay in business after being vigorously sued by Young following the publication of today's strip is anybody's guess. Eh whatever.

Episode 1: Seth, Livi, and Adam embark the podcast with a discussion of maybe the nichest thing possible: microtonality.
