The Bohlen-Pierce Symposium
First symposium on the Bohlen-Pierce scale, Boston, March 7 – 9, 2010
Jascha Narveson


Composer

Jascha Narveson’s music is rooted in rhythm and timing, and draws from everything it can. He absorbed the language of the classical music cannon from an early age, being surrounded by live chamber music recitals in his family home in Waterloo, Ontario, and later went on to play in industrial bands, improvised noise-music ensembles, study North Indian tabla, computer programming, South Indian rhythm, Batá drumming, Georgian choral music, and many other things besides.  His disparate influences seem, over time, to be less and less disparate to him.
