Synopsis
Genesis of a Music is a book first published in 1947 by American microtonal composer Harry Partch (1901–1974). Partch first presents a polemic against both equal temperament and the long history of stagnation in the teaching of music, then goes on to explain his tuning theory based on just intonation, the ensemble of musical instruments of his own invention, and several of his largest musical compositions. This book has been highly influential to succeeding generations of microtonal composers.
