Snail-Tracks : basso-profondo and MIDI keyboard (controlling audio software tuned in just intonation) / music: Ron Nagorcka ; lyrics: Keith Harrison.

Work Overview
This setting of the wonderful poetic whimsy of Keith Harrison is in just intonation (31 tones per octave are spread over the keyboard) which is much less disconcerting for the player as it might sound. This makes for unusual subtly attractive harmonies to emerge. It is in 7/4 time.
