Ben Johnston

Acclaimed micro-tonal composer Ben Johnston is justifiably famous for   his rigorous work ethic, attention to detail and for constructing a   sound world entirely his own. One of the few composers using just intonation who is also interested  in writing rhythmic music, Johnston is  a true original and we’re happy  to shine the spotlight on this modern  master.
