Have a look at a book published in 1930 by the composer Henry Cowell New Musical Resources. He is imagining a future where composers can realise music directly without performers. Conlon Nancarrow realised part of Cowell's program by writing piano music note by note with a player roll punch.…
…output. I could make a few small improvements. E.g., the proportions of tempos among the twelve voices in Study No. 37 are taken from a peculiar tuning system that apparently only appears in Cowell's New Musical Resources. Making that connection would tie in nicely to the previous section that mentions the influence of Cowell's book on Nancarrow. (I believe that connection is made in Kyle Gann's book in case anyone wants…
……管风琴。1:那首卡农各个声部的比例是多少?你猜对了——它们就是纯律半音阶的音程比,Nancarrow 很可能是从 Henry Cowell 的一本书里学来的(没记错的话是《New Musical Resources》)。编辑:修改错别字
…organ. 1: and what are the proportions for the voices of that canon? You guessed it-- they're the ratios from a just intonation chromatic scale, which Nancarrow probably got from a book by Henry Cowell (New Musical Resources, IIRC). Edit: typos
去看看作曲家 Henry Cowell 在 1930 年出版的一本书《New Musical Resources》吧。他在书中设想了这样一个未来:作曲家无需演奏者就能直接把音乐呈现出来。Conlon Nancarrow 用打孔机在自动演奏钢琴纸卷上一音一符地编写钢琴曲,实现了 Cowell 构想的一部分。……

……产出。我可以做几处微调。比如,《Study No. 37》中十二个声部之间的速度比例,取自一种似乎只在 Cowell 的《New Musical Resources》中出现过的奇特律制。建立这种联系,正好能跟前面提到 Cowell 的书对 Nancarrow 的影响那一节呼应上。(要是有人想看的话,我相信 Kyle Gann 的书里应该讲到了这种联系……
