strands that all happen simultane
ously in time,” Mason said, and
that is called counterpoint.
First species counterpoint, as
studied by Fux, is “two melodies
with matching rhythms presented
simultaneously ‘note-against-note’”
Mason explained. This counter
point continues to the fifth species
counterpoint, so that seventh
species “is a music that goes be
yond traditional music,” Mason
said.
“It’s like putting together music
that you can’t even imagine,” Ma
son added enthusiastically.
Even though their music is not
available nationwide, some of the
composers have recorded their mu
sic on Species’ member Jack Gabel’s
label, North Pacific Music. Their
CDs are available at stores like Bor
ders, and at their concerts.
“Festival of the Millennium”
runs through Nov. 22 and is a cele
bration for living 20th-century com
posers to perform their music in the
last concert of this kind in this mil
lennium.
Many local composers, including
Seventh Species, will perform and
are joined by renowned composer
in-residence George Crumb, who is
a winner of the Pulitzer Prize and
has been called one of America’s
greatest contemporary composers.
Ensembles from around the Unit
ed States, such as Denver’s Quattro
Mani, Portland’s Third Angle and
Los Angeles’ California E.A.R. Unit
are also on the concert schedule.
The world music ensembles are
represented by the Mbira Masters of
Zimbabwe, among others.
Seventh Species will perform on
Nov. 10 at 8 p.m. at Beall Hall. Tick- .
ets are $7 general admission, and
$4 for students. The Beall Hall box
office opens one hour before each
event.
