about

This CD marks the premiere full-length CD by just-intonation composer and instrument builder Kraig Grady outside of his documentation of the music of Anaphoria Island. It is the first recording of his music, which does not rely on his skills as a performer, or the instruments of his own design or modification. Instead, in this 55 minute, time-suspending composition, Grady has chosen six of his favorite instrumentalists and vocalists with a wide variety of backgrounds, each possessing some unique quality in their musicality. Grady calls upon these musicians to perform pitches with extreme accuracy but also to use the wide range of timbres possible on their instruments or voices. This extremely meditative yet somewhat intense composition explores of one of Erv Wilson’s (until now) unexplored tunings, Meta-Meantone. This tuning has the characteristic of exploiting a variety of acoustical phenomena ranging from unusually vibrating chords to the presence of difference tones. The
result unfolds in constantly changing new combinations of color and intensity. This is an entirely acoustic recording with no processing effects of any kind. Originally designed for his own personal use, Grady considers this one of his finest compositions, performed exceptionally well, persuading him to release this for the enjoyment of others.
