Gayle Young: NEW TUNINGS FOR NEW INSTRUMENTS

Wednesday May 12 / 8:30

REDCAT Theater in Disney Hall 621 W. Second St. Los Angeles

In the tradition of Harry Partch, the great California champion of alternative tuning systems, Gayle Young designs and builds her own instruments. These include the Columbine, a metallophone using 23 pitches per octave in an expanded Just Intonation tuning system, and the Amaranth, a 24-string instrument with a flexible tuning system, which she will perform solo and with CalArts faculty and students.
