This work contains quarter tones as it is based upon Persian musical scales. It is not out of tune. The guitarist is asked to bend the strings of the guitar to produce the semi tones. This is incorporated into the composition so the performer does not have to try to quickly grab them in the middle of the piece. Quarter tones are also heard in the violins.Electromagma is an adventure in electronic sound. The sounds used are the actual acoustical instruments which have been carefully recorded. The sounds are then re-produced electronically as the written score dictates. This work features Garritan Orchestra.Photography by Shirley D.
