About this Event
Eliot Burk performs the 1287 five-note chords possible in one octave (an excerpt from Tom Johnson's The Chord Catalogue) on clavichord, at a speed of one-chord-per-minute. On each day for nine days, a group of chords with the same high note will be played. Each group of chords will be located in a different building, sequentially circumnavigating the Arts Quadrangle:

8/11, 1:08pm to 1:13pm, high note F, in an upper corner;
8/12, 1:05pm to 1:17pm, high note F#, in a storage closet;
8/13, 12:54pm to 1:26pm, high note G, in a stairwell nook;
8/14, 12:36pm to 1:43pm, high note G#, in a mail closet;
