Dear Tuning Readers,
Here's next info from Tom.
Andrew Gawel.
----------------------------------
I am very glad that letter was understood. In result of it Paul E.
played litlle progression very nice:

> Here is a little progression using Tomasz's letter names, M indicates a> 4:5:6:7 chord (4 is the root), and m indicates a 1/7:1/6:1/5:1/4 chord (1/6 > is the root)

> CM Om TM Em QM Vm GM CM

> 00-02-04-04-02-04-06-00

> 12-14-12-12-14-16-14-12

> 21-21-19-21-23-23-21-21

> 29-29-31-33-31-31-33-29

Paul exploid two importance sorts of chords and named then M and m.
I propose to give the names 12 basic sorts of chords:
C or CEGO = 0+12+9+8
c or CRenGOen = 0+9+12+7
Cd or CYGOen = 0+11+10+7
Cm or CRGO = 0+10+11+8
C* or CYGenOen = 0+11+9+8
c* or CRenGenOen = 0+9+11=8
Ct or CETO = 0+12+7+10
ct or CRenTOen = 0+9+10+9
Ctd or CYTOen = 0+11+8+9
Ctm or CRTO = 0+10+9+10
C� or CLGO = 0+14+7+8
c� or CLenGOen = 0+13+8+7.

John asked:
> Has Tomasz composed any music in this system? Why did he decide on the cycle of >1152/octave?

The cycle of 1152/octave give possibility optaining intervals up to
h26.These intervals
is neccessary to making interesingsound chains. Example: h6+h7+...+h26
= 9/8 = h2. The cycle of 768/octave give possibility optaing intervals up to h14.
I spend not many effort for composition but createt many sounds
examples. NPD 36 means Natural Beauty Sound.

Regards,
Tomasz Liese.
