If you are in NY on April 15th my piece for Microtonal trumpet and electronics
(running Pd) will feature in Stephen Altoft's recital as part of the AMERICAN
FESTIVAL OF MICROTONAL MUSIC (AFMM), under the direction of Johnny Reinhard,
presents a four-night series at Spectrum, located at 121 Ludlow Street, second
floor, in Lower Manhattan. Admission is $20. at the door for each night; $15
for seniors and students.
Tuesday at 7 PM on April 15th spotlights the microtonal trumpet in recital
featuring European trumpeter Stephen Altoft in his own composition RASP, as
well as Oded Ben-Tal’s STILL LIFE, Elia Koussa’s UPWARDS IN TIME, Elizabeth
Adams’ IMMATERIAL, Donald Bousted’s YASSER DESCRIBES HIS POLEMIC (and adds
some footnotes), Cornelius Schwehr’s LE BONHEUR, Gordon Kampe’s YIIIIIIIIIHA,
Eleri Pound’s GNOSSIENNE, and Alexander Grebtschenko’s BYE-BYE. Mr. Altoft
has collected short works in 19-tone equal temperament named the “The Yasser
Collection” after the early 20th Century theorist and organist, Joseph Yasser.
