Inspired by work in Indigenous communities over the last 25 years and also, over the last four, in Istria, a tiny region in west Croatia, whose microtonal scale has been listed in the UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage List, as well as explorations in Pythagorian Harmonics and Just Intonation, the slowly evolving work builds on natural harmonies and subtracted or interpolated fundamentals, it flows between sublime and challenging sonorities at an almost imperceptible rate.
