Conic Bellophone | |||
First official presentation in March 2007 at the UK Microfest. | |||
This instrument is designed and built by Tony Salinas (J.A.Martin Salinas) and has an octave range with 96 conic bells (2mm steel spun on a lathe) tuned to the 96 equal temperament, even though the conic bells can be tuned from 5 to 240 notes per octave. The maximum range for they can cover is 2 octaves and a fifth with angled extensions of the stands (for the required tuning). | |||

This is the performance of 'Autumn I' for Conic Bellophone, percussion, Trombone, Trumpet, Celo and Bass Clarinet. Steve Altoft has a trumpet with a quartertone valve which was required for the composition. Steve plays with the duo contour with the percusionist playing the conic bellophone, Lee Ferguson. | |||
Bozidar Vukotic the London based Russian Cellist player was very precise! | |||
The contemporary trombonist Allan Tomlinson enjoyed the continuous glissandi and requested a solo piece. | |||
The Italian bass clarinetist Guido Arbonelli gave me a live lesson on playing multiphonics, and I had time to rearrange the piece. | |||
The Timpanist Matthew West had incredible sightreading skills. | |||
Many thanks to Lewis Jones, my main research supervisor, who conducted at 60 b.p.m. with great control over the players. Also many thanks to my ttutor in composition Javier Garavaglia. | |||

Here I am introducing the Autumn piece for the UK Microfest 2007 | |||

This is the French guitarist Wim Hoogewerf with the percussionist from Duo Contour, Lee Ferguson. Wim has a | |||
96 equal temperament guitar (1/4 tone frets and 6 E strings 1/16 of a tone appart). They played an amazing | |||
ascending chromatic scale (range of an octave) using the 96 notes in unison with the help of the bottle neck. | |||
They performed chromatic zig-zag exercises in unison covering the full range of the octave. | |||
They also played a duet I wrote for 96 equal temperament guitar and bellophone. | |||
These materials are really worthy waiting for the video to be edited! | |||
Wim also performed a piece by Pascal Criton (who was in the audience) for the same guitar. | |||

Lee Ferguson explains the characteristics and the tough time he had preparing for the concert in one evening | |||
when it was the first time for him to see the instrument. He took the instrument back to Germany, and we hope | |||
to hear about his performances with the conic bellophone around in the future.[[image:http://photos-c.ak.facebook.com/photos-ak-sf2p/v113/106/91/696302104/n696302104_227562_5825.jpg link="http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=227563&id=696302104"]] | |||
