Microtonal music on CD
This list contains microtonal/xenharmonic/non-12 music on CD only and no works in
12-note just intonation, 12-note in historical temperaments or ethnic traditional music.
Xenharmonic is a term invented by Ivor Darreg for musical phenomena that sound
different from having 12 tones in an octave, and derives from the Greek xenos = strange,
foreign. The term e.t. stands for equal temperament or equal tuning.
The addresses of record labels and companies are included.
Links to homepages of composers and groups are included. When there is more than
one link to the same person, it refers to a different page.

Paul Dolden: "Veils" (1984-1985) subtitled "Studies in Textural Transformations", is a
series of textures or walls of sound which act as an invitation for the listener to
explore an environment where new acoustic sensations and associations can be
discovered. The texture, a sustained microtonal chord of usually 14-56 notes, is
constantly transforming by changing the instrument type that is articulating the sound
(i.e. from strings to voice, to brass, to piano, to marimba, to glass, etc). No electronic
effects were used and only straight recordings and mixing of acoustic instruments
were used. Diffusion i Mdia, 1999. IMED 9917/18
