Pardon the cross posting
Thought some might be interested in Some MP3 excerpts from . The Stolen
Stars: An Anaphorian dance drama. the tuning is Meta slendro but the
first uses only a seven tone subset while the latter uses 12 pitches in
the bass range (The Meru Bars) invoked through the use of
horogram rhythms

Thanks Paul!
The bowed strings are two bowed psaltries. They are remarkable quality and made by a
place called Omega strings, which is one man about 70 miles west of me. I happen to run
accross one of his instruments in a shop and was so impressed with how much louder it was
than any i had heard that i called him up. To build ones instruments is one thing, but if
you find some one who does better than you know you can do, it seems best to patronize
their work. he has wanted to make bass instruments but hasn't done so yet. The stay
pretty well in tune unlike many of this family.f
