After the performance the guitarist [http://www.xs4all.nl/%7Ehuygensf/english/hoogewerf.html Wim Hoogewerf] with Lee Ferguson, played a 96 edo guitar (1/4 tone frets and 6 E strings 1/16 of a tone appart) and 96edo conic bellophone duet. They played an amazing ascending chromatic scale (range of an octave) using the 96 notes in unison, and then some zig-zag exercises. They also played a duet I wrote for 96 equal temperament guitar and bellophone. Lee Ferguson also played a solo study for the conic bellophone (an adaptation of that [http://www.donaldbousted.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/wilddoginc.htm study for 4 hands on the conic bellophone] which Lee Ferguson played with [http://www.poup.hr/1/sadrzaj.aspx?meni=ulazna&stranica=278&dizajn=poup Petar Curic] was before in September 2007 at the Wild Dog Festival ([http://conicbellophone.wikispaces.com/home SPNM review]).
