Revision as of 11:29, 15 September 2024
When a piece of music is to be performed repeatedly the same way, or performed by people who weren't the originators of the piece, it helps to have a score. In the history of objectifying music, scores were the currency until they were displaced by recordings. There are many types of microtonal notation, such as Sagittal notation, color notation and ups and downs notation.
Historically significant microtonal scores
Check your local gigantic university library. If they don't have it, they could probably be persuaded to get it.
- Charles Ives's Three Quarter Tone Pieces (1923-1924)
- Harry Partch, all works
- Ben Johnston, esp. string quartets
- Alois Hába, esp. string quartets
- Ivan Wyschnegradsky, all microtonal works
- Easley Blackwood, esp. Twelve Microtonal Etudes for Electronic Music Media, op. 28
- publishings of Diapason Press
- this list is so obviously incomplete that you should help finish it.
Links to microtonal scores, by composer
Please contribute to this list of scores that are available (i.e. downloadable). This is meant as a resource for performers interested in microtonal music. Feel free to make wiki pages for "notable" compositions; the wiki supports file attachments up to 10 MB each.
