Re: spiritual music "in the flesh"

Hi Joseph,

Enjoyed your song with piano and violin.

Violin gets seriously microtonal.

Something of the lark ascending about it.

I think it uses septimal minor arpeggios in the violin, is that right?
E.g. violin I think plays 1/1 3/2 7/6 1/1 3/2 7/6,... at the end.

Thank you so much, Robert, for your nice comments.

Yes, that is, indeed, what seems to be going on, but at that point in
my life it was just written in 12-tET with glissandi!

HOWEVER, I think with all the "glissing around," the violinist
actually came even more to the "natural" intervals than otherwise...
at least that's what it sounds like to me!

best,

Joseph
