Dear Marc and all,

I'm in the same boat, and there may be more than a few of us, so I'll
write publicly.

This is a great place to play:

Microtonal Music -- a wonderful collection of links by John Starrett


Here are some articles that are basic enough for me, a
non-mathematician, to understand:

Tuning Tutorial, by John Starrett


A Tour Up The Harmonic Series, by David Canright


Pentatonics I Have Known, by David Canright


How We Became Well Tempered, by Peter Rorke


Music and Number, by Joseph Milne


Best regards,
Kathleen Seidel
