Saw this today in my Technorati feed for "Microtonal". A six part
documentary on Harry Partch from the BBC.

Jon, you're interviewed in the same doc. as Phil Glass!

And Glass saw The Bewitched and says "it was the first real
music theater piece I had seen which was truly new, which was
neither a broadway show, or a traditional opera, or straight
play".

I mention this mainly because his name just came up, and I
never pictured him a Partch fan.

Ah, yes, I was aware of that. :) It's late, but this whole BBC thing is worth a story-time for MMMers, which I'll supply tomorrow. We laughed, we cried, etc...

Cheers,
Jon
