Iceland-based John McCowen is a composer/performer originally from Southern Illinois. His work focuses on extending the possibilities of the clarinet. He embraces long-form drones, difference tones, and beating harmonics as a means to extrude the dimensions within - treating the clarinet as an acoustic synthesizer.
