Harry Partch was an American composer, music theorist, and creator of musical instruments. He was also one of the first 20th-century composers in the West to work systematically with microtonal scales. He built custom-made instruments in these tunings on which to play his compositions, and described his theory and practice in his book "Genesis of a Music".
Back in the fall of 2013, I had the opportunity to visit the Partch Studio at Montclair State University in Montclair, NJ to take some photos of these fascinating instruments.
Natürliche Musikinstrumente erzeugen reichlich Obertöne. Die vollen Klangfarben von Gongs, Klangschalen, Didgeridoos und vielen anderen Instrumenten aus aller Welt zeugen davon.

This is my instrument. It is an extension of my mind, body, and soul. It is fender stratocaster with a wine burst finish, rose wood fret board, vintage 1960's pick ups, closet aged, and a whole ton of other perks. This guitar means the world to me and I only let people whom I approve play it

(action-short): The score’s visual flow is guided not by harmony but by elements like rhythm, articulation, and its lively texture, which are shaped spontaneously by the performers' hands and minds through their moment-to-moment decisions. While some parts of the score are fixed, its primary intention is to enrich pure experimentation, offering a range of possible combinations and interactions among the performers. It invites a ritualistic and celebratory context, also supporting spiritual practice. This enables both listeners and performers to engage in unfamiliar forms of self-reflection and attention. The work suggests a way of being that is neither goal-oriented nor grand, but instead rooted in patience, and clarity with interest in how things actually are - simple, rich, and beautiful.
