About this composition:

Pythagoras, for tape (1987)

I created this tape piece in 1987 while studying at Manhattan School of Music. I used in this piece samples of sounds made with my own mouth. When these sounds are played using different keys of a digital keyboard, their pitch and rhythm are multiplied in accordance to Pythagorean ratios.
