Description

13 Ways of Looking at 12 Strings was composed in 2002 by Bryan Johanson for The Duo (Eric Benzant-Feldra and Michael Kudirka). Commissioned by Rick and Ginny Tinling, it was premiered by The Duo at the 2003 Portland Guitar Festival. The work’s thirteen movements are divided into three parts: Part I: Cool Cubed (four short guitar duos), Part II: Pentadigitopia (a guitar solo, three duos using unusual timbres, then a second guitar solo), and Part III: Cube Squared (four larger guitar duos).
