The Leierlieder are written for four clarinets, with the 3rd and 4th instruments tuned a sixth tone lower. This creates strange harmonies and strange melodic formations. In the first movement, "Title Song", the sixth tones create a kind of pitch "vibrato". The second movement "Melancholic Scherzo" begins with a hoqueting melody. A slow line of endless melancholy reminds me of Miles Davis.
For me, "microtonality" - similar to the old "tonality" - is a holistic phenomenon of harmony/melody and time structures. Maybe I'm about to learn this one thing in particular from ethnic, non-notated music: a narrative power comes up through irregularities.
The soundfile is a compilation from an ensemble modern interpretation with additional 4 violas, percussion and other instruments, from my piece "en cet hybride tamps".
