Hi Shaahin,

I hadn't listened to this until now -- it is awesome! Playful and energetic. I like it. It is so short it's teasing me. polymicro-2 is also almost as good!

Dear Shaahin and All,

How curious it is that I listened to and reviewed polymicro-2.mp3
first, and only now Polymicro-1.mp3. In any event, I very much like
them both.

With Polymicro-1, things which especially appealed to me include the
instrumentation and also the polyphonic setting, with fourths and
fifths having a very pleasing effect. Your notes inform me that this
piece uses a combination of 24-EDO and your Baran scale named in honor
of your daughter; again, you have woven these elements together so
that a listener, or at any rate me, notes not so much the tuning as
the music itself.

I would be curious if these melodies are from the Radif or repertory
of Iranian classical music and, if so, which Dastgah-ha or modal
families? (For people unfamiliar with these terms: a Dastgah in
Persian music is a family of modal patterns or melodic themes, and
Dastgah-ha the plural.)

In listening to the piece, I get a feeling of what is called in
European music "imitation" -- that is, having one melodic line sound a
theme or pattern that is then sounded in another line while the first
line continues with more material. Some African musics, for example,
also use this technique, and this effect (whether I am actually
hearing it or "inventing" it in interpreting the sound) makes your
polyphony all the more interesting.

Anyway, congratulations on another fine piece, with melody and
instrumentation superb, as is usual for your music.

Peace and love,

Margo
