Signal & Form on KTRT tonight 5-7: prepared instruments, invented tools, and musical machines

[GrantLaw]

What happens when composers stop changing the notes, and start changing the instruments?

Tonight’s episode of Signal & Form explores music shaped by altered instruments, newly invented sound worlds, and machines built to realize ideas humans can’t easily play.

First hour:
• prepared instruments
• invented instruments built out of necessity
• machines that flip the relationship between composer and performer

Second hour opens things up with recent discoveries, requests, and some lighter — but still curious — listening.

No background required. Come listen for a bit.
