Paracelsus for Diatonic Harmonic Guitar by Dante Rosati

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FlwN7qSGz9U

hey Dante
pretty cool music,    I haven't heard a lot of music by others that relates directly to the natural whole tone scale that I keep talking about   (not that it doesn't exist.....)  .do you also use the half tone and quarter tone scales that follow?   maybe even the eighth tone (and beyond) scale values that are generated using the same process?    just curious

Awesome composition, Dante, really enjoyed it.

hi Tim, I am not sure I understand your question...what is the "natural
whole tone scale"?

This sounds great. :-)

I suspect the scale is a smaller version of the 12-tone scale called "wilson_helix.scl" in Manuels archive. The scale itself is ingenious, I've used it a couple of times in my compositions as well. It also offers a very "distant sounding" mode of "1 3 2 1 1 3 2" steps.

Hi Dante
 the exact elements of your tuning ...I'm just approaching it on a very simple level and getting the same results . Also, I'm not quite describing it in the same way as is common here on the group. 
 
Hey a small question: in your composition, did you only retune the strings of the guitar or have you also refretted the guitar ?

i dont think the 4th octave of the harmonic series is particularly esoteric,
it is actually audible in the sound of strings and its notes can be reached
on overblown brass instruments and in overtone singing. its probably the
most exoteric tuning possible.
