Thirty One - a microtonal series

In March 2004 the first volume of this new journal from the Huygens-Fokker Foundation came out. Published in English, it has articles from three different countries. Leo de Vries, one of the most dedicated microtonalists in the Netherlands, presents four articles covering microtonal transpositions, a new rhythmical notation and several highly developed new instrumental theories. Buzz Kimball of the United States continues the instrumental theme with tips on building and practicing 31 tone guitars and Donald Bousted of the U.K. presents a unique new insight into the tuning actualities of performance.
