Exquisite sounds,

This review is from: Johnston: Microtonal Piano (Audio CD)
I heard this on a local radio station and had to have it. Exquisite sounds. My tastes generally incline toward jazz, so maybe this triggers those responses.

experimental music that's actually melodic!,
By josh (Appeleton, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Johnston: Microtonal Piano (Audio CD)
Ben Johnston proves that being less conventional and being more aproachable aren't mutually exclusive with his microtonal suite for piano. His tuning allows him to do cool pseudo chromatic runs inwhich each step becomes slightly smaller than the last one (when ascending). The pure fifths sound really great in "Blues," which goes into a cool 13/8 ostinato. The "Song" is really beautiful, too. Not being a fan of post Webern serrialism, I wasn't as pleased with the "Sonata for Microtonal Piano," but I still found it more interesting than equal tempered serrialism.
