Acclaimed micro-tonal composer Ben Johnston is justifiably famous for his rigorous work ethic, attention to detail and for constructing a sound world entirely his own.
\nOne of the few composers using just intonation who is also interested in writing rhythmic music, Johnston is a true original and we\u2019re happy to shine the spotlight on this modern master.
