Wyschnegradsky - Arc en ciel

[@pianomanhere]

"Rainbow" (i.e., "Arc-en-ciel") is a perfect name for this piece. I think of it as something of a cosmic rainbow whose visual beauty uncompromisingly thrusts over the harshness of many planetary environments.

First time I've heard one of his works in 72 notes per octave (72EDO or something close to it). This is the one for 6 pianos (presumably each one tuned in 12EDO or something close to it, and a 1/12-tone apart from each other). The other one, which I haven't heard yet, appears to be an Étude written for a 1/12-tone "metamorphoser" piano built by Julián Carrillo.

this seems like a mad man having a stroke and aneurysim on a piano... I like it

This musical langage is the most suitable to express the complexity of this chromatic phenomene.

Wish I still had 2 pianos so I could make an attempt at microtonal :( But excellent upload anyway !

[@johnsmith-ch7fg]

lots of options to explore microtones that don't need two full pianos or more these days

Will this be the classics in a hundred years?

[@michelangelomerisi8398]

Everyone will know it and whistle it like the turkish march. Little children will ask for it before going to bed :)

[@steffen5121]

@@michelangelomerisi8398 Hilarious thought.

[@distantworlds9104]

Yes. One of the triumphs of western microtonal music.

Are they carbon based life forms or perhaps Silicon?
