Bang on a Can

Glenn Branca came to world attention with his massive symphonies written for re-tuned electric guitars. He developed a unique sound palette, and with it a unique tuning theory based on the natural harmonic series up to the 128th partial. In order to play his music, Branca built a series of guitar and keyboard instruments with these special tunings. Movement Within features six of these instruments -- three keyboards and three guitars. This is the first time an ensemble other than Branca's own has performed his microtonal music on his original instruments.
