Planet MicroJam Institute

Alois Hába's "Suite for Quarter-tone Piano No. 6 (Op. 88+ - I. Allegro)” performed by Planet MicroJam as arranged by David Fiuczynski. At the crossroads of new beats, microtonal harmonies, Eastern melodic inflections and improvisation concepts, new musical ideas are on the horizon. Planet MicroJam collides sonic aesthetics from our increasingly connected global village to create music that sounds like Van Gogh’s “Flowering Plum Tree” painting—a raw, powerful, and extremely colorful mix of Eastern and Western elements.
