Hubert Howell

Anyone know anything about Hubert Howell's microtonal music? From his
web site

http://qcpages.qc.cuny.edu/~howe/index.html

it appears he has done some, and has made Csound versions of some of
his pieces, but unfortunately does not give downloadable versions.

***I believe the name, Gene, is Hubert Howe. I really don't know his
music, but he is quite well known as an electronic music composer...

You're right! But I still don't know anything about his music; it's a
pity if he's writing microtonal music but no one here is listening.

Howe was (perhaps still is?) a teacher of electronic music
at Queens College in New York City (Queens). that's all
i know about him. i had a book written by him, but now
don't even remember what it was.

i found this on amazon.com:

***Actually, this sounds a bit "primitive" compared to stuff people
like Jeff Harrington have been doing... (and perhaps even my humble
self...) But, it was probably done some time ago...
