A protégé of La Monte Young, composer-pianist Michael Harrison has developed one the most distinctive voices of our time, informed by his study of North Indian classical ragas and Middle Eastern rhythms. In Revelation (2001), his hypnotic seventy-minute work for solo piano, he employs the principles of harmonic resonance and just intonation to forge a remarkable new sound for the instrument, based on unfamiliar tunings and scales. Live performances of this strangely beautiful work have been praised for delivering 'heaping doses of old-fashioned, jaw-dropping virtuosity' (Los Angeles Times) and for generating 'pulsating shimmering walls of sound.' --The Wire."
