Notation refs

Chris Palmer asked about non-12 notations. In addition to Paul
Rapoport's article in Xenharmonikon 16, there are articles by
Ervin Wilson and others in XH2 and XH3. All three of these issues
are available from Frog Peak Music, P.O. Box 1052, Lebanon, NH

As far as performance on midi instruments is concerned, some
composers simply map the tuning onto a standard keyboard and
play whatever is under the fingers.

Alternatively, one may use Julian Carrillo's numerical system
for any tuning. However, Carrillo's books are somewhat difficult
to find.

Cool, Bill! I'll have to give it a whirl when I get a chance.

The importance of xenharmonic ear-training, I think at least, has been all
too often overlooked. Early on when I started getting into 88CET, I made a 3 CD
(CDR actually) set of ear-training, sight-singing, and nomenclature exercises.
(Perhaps in the case of 88CET it would better be described as "ear-straining,
sight-screaming, and misnomenclature!) But they've been valuable when I'm
waiting around in traffic, on the treadmill in the mornings, or on trips to
visit my parents in Houston.
