Agust​í​n Castilla​-​Á​vila​/​Giacomo Fiore - Il Velo Di Iside

from Possible Worlds Vol. 3 by Various Artists

about

IL VELO DI ISIDE (The Veil of Isis) is written for guitar using a scordatura of six bass E strings tuned at sixths of a tone between them (36 ET), acting as a bridge between Eastern and Western music (as the frets are semitonal in the ordinary guitar). This scordatura gives the guitar an extraordinary louder and richer resonance which contracts with many sounds produced “without resonance body” (between the left hand and upper nut, which even allows to get more microtonal sounds). These two forces are shown all through the work. --Agustín Castilla-Ávila
