Re: [MMM] Morning

Hello, thank you for the nice environment you provided for my "Morning"
coffee here in Paris. Please give us all a little technical bell timbre and
scale background.

Greetings

Nice to have a shot of modality in my caffeine.

The bell of Jedburgh's Old Jail has a serious microtonal pitch in it's
daily chime (you know the one - "Ding Dong Ding Dong"). I'm going to try
to record it for analysis. Better be quick though - they have
scaffolding up and might be going to repair it. BTW great photo of
Robert on Skye - ever taken the boat from Elgol across Loch Coruisk?
Midge Central!

Kind Regards

Jacky,

Thanks. This one is great.
I really appreciate its xenharmonic sound.

I forget what these really amazing tunings can do for a
person so was glad to be reminded -- felt 'activated'
and stirred and even brought forth tears. This music is
very emotionally present.
