Re: [MMM] 22 vs 17 vs 19EDO sound example IMPORTANT

OK, note I scrambled the order ON PURPOSE to prevent.deliberate favoritism IE the order is not necessarily what I posted (and 22 is not necessarily first).
With that knowledge, what are your answers? :-D  Please give them in terms of "first, second, or third melodic part" not "22TET" or "19TET".

I'd agree 19 too, but I might challenge your bass note or two in the 17

example.

There is another point I'd like to make.

While I understand what is going on here - the truth of the matter is that

you can't throw any arbitrary music into any arbitrary tuning. If you could

and it would all sound great we would have a lot less to talk about here.

And *if* (I don't know) this example was actually a 12 edo-ish progression /

melody then its pretty natural 19 will sound best.

So I think a better way to go would be to write *comparable* song in each

tuning that uses the strengths of each. After all the goal is to write good

*new* music.

Doesn't sound like you changed the order at all, and I like the first
one the best.
