The American Festival of Microtonal Music, Inc. (AFMM) was founded by Johnny Reinhard to showcase past and contemporary
microtonal music and to introduce microtonality to the listening public. Through his direction of the AFMM and his other
individual efforts, Reinhard has almost singlehandedly revived public awareness of microtonality in the 1990's. The AFMM
has become a leader in new music activity today.
