Harry Partch at Mills College, Oakland California

Posted on 6 October, 2011 in Composers, History, Video

I wrote a brief article about Harry Partch some time ago… This video from the Prelinger Archives at the Internet Archive is a newsreel clip from what I’m guessing is sometime in the 1950s, showing part of a performance of Mills College students playing Partch’s instruments.

It’s a short video and it’s really pretty fascinating…
