Microtonality
Based on the 72-ET virtual pitch continuum formulated by Ezra Sims and
Joe Maneri. And as manifested on the landmark 2002 CD release 29 Pieces
For
The Microtonal Guitar Live at Knitting Factory New York. Internationally
acclaimed guitar virtuoso, composer, bandleader and veteran music educator
Sten Hostfalt and NYC Guitar Studio offers microtonal
instruction. Mainly through
custom techniques for practical application and interpretation of microtones
on
the standard 6-string / 12 fret guitar.
Contrary to rather common beleif - the actual instrument at hand is not what
makes any music microtonal or not. But rather the ear and skill
of the player does.
Consequently players of any and all instruments are welcome to study microtonality
with Sten Hostfalt at NYC Guitar Studio. However in this case ( if on other
instrument
than the guitar ), note that ear training is the focus
and that
in addition, the technical
adjustements
necessary to perform microtones ideally should be shown
by someone highly skilled on the instrument.
