            tuba player and composer Robin Hayward joins N.K. for a
            two-day
            workshop based around the recently developed Hayward Tuning
            Vine
            interface for Just Intonation.<br>
            Just Intonation is the system of
            microtonal tuning based on whole number frequency<br>
            relationships,
            and is the acoustic basis underlying such musical intervals
            as the
            perfect<br>
            fifth and major third, as well as less common microtonal
            intervals such as the septimal<br>
            minor seventh and neutral sixth.
            Through colour-coding and spatialising the harmonic<br>
            relationships,
            the Hayward Tuning Vine allows them to be explored
            intuitively,
            enabling<br>
            them to be seen as well as heard. It therefore makes Just
            Intonation more accessible to<br>
            people who might otherwise be put
            off by its apparently abstract and mathematical nature,<br>
            and
            provides an ideal introduction to the theory and practice of
            microtonal music.</font></font></font></p>
