Comments Haikai consists of 16 microtonal duets, each written on a single staff. The Haiku structure (5:7:5) is manifested in the number of events. The zoomoozophone is an instrument invented by Dean Drummond that uses 129 aluminum tubes tuned to a 31-note per octave source scale, in just intonation. |
