==A word about scores== When a piece of music wants to be performed repeatedly the same way, (or) 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. == == ==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 (1913-1924) * Harry Partch * Ben Johnston, esp. string quartets * Alois Hába, esp. string quartets * Easley Blackwood, esp. Twelve Microtonal Etudes for Electronic Music Media, op. 28 * publishings of [[http://diapason.xentonic.org/|Diapason Press]] * this list is so obviously incomplete that you should help finish it. ==Composers' sites with microtonal scores== * David Canright: [[http://www.redshift.com/%7Edcanright/suite/index.htm|Fibonacci Suite]] (piano retuned to 7-limit JI, seven hands) * Kyle Gann: [[http://www.kylegann.com/LoveScene.pdf|Love Scene]] for string quartet.
