As a composer of overtone choir music, I am looking for this type of choir with at least a few capable polyphonic singers who understand the numbered notation system. I have several pieces available that do not fall into the category of ethereal, new age or meditative music. There are a lot of quick paced rhythmic passages in many cases.For some of these, even if there are no overtone singers in the choir, the overtone parts may be replicated by having the harmonics sung in regular singing voice (in lower range, of course).I would like to record some of these pieces through the internet, building them up with individual tracks. This can be done with any temporarily missing voices filled in with Sibelius software voices (choral library vowel sounds). If anyone is interested in participating, please let me know.Another milestone in technology is occurring on Nov 20th, with an internet real-time concert using musicians spread all over the world. This is definitely something to strive towards in the overtone community.Information about this follows:ResoNationsAn International Telematic Music Concert for PeaceNovember 20, 20097:30PM EST United Nations Headquarters, New York City, United States of America4:30PM PST University of California San Diego, United States of America5:30PM MST The Banff Centre, Alberta, CanadaNovember 21, 200912:30AM BST Queens University Belfast, Northern Ireland, United Kingdom9:30AM KST Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) and Dongguk University, Seoul, South KoreaRenowned musicians in five international locations perform new contemporary music works for peace through the telematic music medium.
