Description
Repress from this 1969 library styled albumA composer, a theorist, and an innovator, Harry Partch stands out among so many other American classical artists as one of the most eccentric, he took his greatest inspirations from Eastern Noh theater, frequently incorporating speech and dance into his pieces, as well as requiring participants to perform multiple parts.. Many of the pieces he composed would prominently feature instruments of his own invention, including heavily modified string instruments, mallet instruments, and pipe organs.
