Jacky!
You could also notate the piece (if such a thing is even necessary)
using the closest Et notes but have a guide at the beginning that shows
the ratio each note corresponds to. That way the player would know what
you were thinking and have some conceptional idea of the scale. A very
unPartchian idea :)

Unfortunately, that would not be
possible, as this is an irrational
scale, and it has more than 12
notes per octave, in an
arrangement not at all
resembling something standard
notation can represent. In any
case, Reinhard only accepts
scores with cents alterations
notated over the noteheads, and/
or standard quartertone
accidentals. It's what he and his
cohorts have learned to read,
with accuracy and fluency.

Or how about, Jacky, using two Golden VIOLINS and notating the piece
in 72-tET! That's what *I* personally would do now! :)
