about

19.5 is a large work, nearly an hour in duration. The work is divided into three sections of four movements each: I-IV Modes; V-VIII Poetry; IX-XII Spirit. It is presented as a journey taken by the composer in his explorations of an ancient but contemporary tuning system; and the listener is invited to experience it in this way too. Although each movement can stand alone and has, indeed, been presented that way in recitals, the true nature of the piece can only be experienced from listening from beginning to end. The score and tuning charts are available free of charge from Microtonal Projects; The Microtonal Trumpet Resources.
