Qablitum

This piece was inspired by listening to this lecture of February 1971 by Lou Harrison:

The Tuning of the Babylonian Harp (February 12, 1971)

Listen to Qablitum at http://www.seraph.it/dep/det/Qablitum.mp3

See my blog for more informations: http://www.seraph.it/blog_files/category-music.html

What a horrible sound file (the lecture, not the music). Is there a
transcription available?

Thank you for the links - I have found the lecture quite interesting.

Good recording for being 27 years old.

I will listen to your piece as well
