In fact, he was far ahead of OUR time. I think that our society hasn´t reached to understand completely

what about raymond scott

@piano12161770 John Cage was overrated and seemed to be interested in making statements rather than music. Partch and Nancarrow really did find something original that will last with time.

how is it john cage is the cornerstone of modern music and alot of harry partch is swept under the rug?

@8anvils I don't know if time is right word for this guy. you can give people all the time in the world and they aren't going to do anything like this. unless your name is moondog.

@8anvils Still is. Most people who were ahead of their time in the 19-20th centuries still are today.

@kingquinnerz89 Your extremely INARTICULATE "rebuttal" ironically proves that you, my ignorant friend, are the ass.
(Even Sarah Palin makes actual arguments unlike your jr high ad hominem insults. You couldn't think of ANYTHING smarter to write? Exactly.)
@TouchingYou real instruments have been with us for too long to really find anything that unique, computers are probabally our best bet for somthing crazy now, being spoiled by modern technology has probabally desensitized us to how different these instruments would have sounded when partch was playing with them

In addition to admiring Partch, I like the tone & style of this old documentary I love how it begins showing those 50's people playing stick ball & then it shows Harry Partch with his pipe looking out @ the neighborhood while the creative,rhythmic music plays! Partchs music makes my mouth water & somehow brings more value & feeling to sounds,after listening to him if I play guitar I can feel the music more powerfully, It makes me respect the simple thud of my hand on the wood of the guitar
