ben, i am a composer and a huge fan of your multiphonic videos and i was browsing through your channel when i saw this- i was so so surprised because Tim is one of my composition professors at Boston Conservatory. so cool to see you collaborating!!!

Cool! How many layers are there?

This piece is so beautiful, I can’t find the sheet music anywhere. Where did you get it?

masterpiece!

Amazing work

Hi Ben, how would you notate the timbre change in 7:18? amazing videos!!

I just found this series! this is amazing, thanks for posting!

This is very instructive for composing in one way, but begs many questions. How do you even go about composing for multiphonics...you'd have to know what was possible....are they really flexible or do the multiphonic intervals happen organically. In other words, how much control does the oboe player have? In the example, more partials, what are they? Are they distinct enough to notate precisely or is it just notated generally as a chord without distinct pitches? It sounds like the result is rather variable.

Very nice! Thank you!

Oh! I love the colors it produces! It sounds incredible! Could you share some works in which this technique is used?

uh this is awkward, i have a piece called “for ben roild-ward” too. do we have to like fight to the death now or something?

Superb, all around. Great work, stellar performance.

I have a question, can this multiphonic be played pp easily? Thanks

what is that

What a great project! Thank you for sharing it!!!

One of the nicecest, most subtle mtph. I have heard. Just like Luis' piece (:

This is freaking awesome!

what's the fingering diagram like for this one? would love to use it in one of my pieces!

very useful, thank you!

This series is an absolute treasure!!! <3 Thank you so much for doing this man

Wonderful. Quite mesmerizing.

I got lessons from her when I was a kid

masterful!

GREAT

My friend, you have some incredible lungs. Those long notes, wow.

Wow, cool piece, is the score available?

on 6:33 there is this beautifull multiphonic... there is a pitch that knda trills... is this done with a change of fingering? u can control it? thanks

Beast!!! Love your response and ghostly phrasing at the 6 minute mark, Ben!

This is great - the movie it made me think of is ‘Arrival’

beautiful work Ben - there's a whole world in that multiphonic!

TWENTY SEVEN. Nice man. And, yes, Weston's album is 🔥

That's what I'm talking about baby

beautiful sounds

That low A is my tuning note...

Nice hat!

Anything else with a prominent tritone sound? Possibly something you can really wail on?... Also the second to last one you show is currently my pick for MVP.

It's a yes from me!!

Hey, Ben! Great presentation. I’ve been meaning to watch your series since it began, and I finally got started with it. Fascinating stuff. Hope you’re doing well in your isolation! Looking forward to continuing with your series and learning more about multiphonics on the bassoon.

I think this was the very first multiphonic I discovered when experimenting, myself!! Oh the memories...

amazing!

Saxophonists use the term threshold tone for the pitches that seamlessly slur into a multiphonic where that pitch is also present. I would love to add this to the research someday!

🤘

Nice!

Yes Ben!! Keep 'em coming :)

Excellent!

Bravo!
