Choose any reasonable 3-note microtonal chord. For example, choose 0-
273-655 cents in 22tet. Map this chord to C-E-G. This produces C=0,
E=273 and G=655cents. It now naturally follows that F-A-C becomes 545-
818-1200 cents, G-B-D becomes 655-927-109 cents, E-G#-B becomes 273-
545-
927 cents, A-C#-E becomes 818-1091-273 cents, B-D#-F# becomes 927-0-
382
cents, Ab-C-Eb becomes 545-0-0 cents, Db-F-Ab becomes 1091-545-545
cents and Eb-G-Bb becomes 0-655-655 cents. The tuning of the Kurzweil
(or similar) now is: C=0, C#=1091, D=109, Eb=0, E=273, F=545, F#=382,
G=655, Ab=545, A=818, Bb=655, and B=927. Classical piano midi files
with a vibraphone timbre sound quite good when used with this musical
algorithm which can be used to explore or just to have fun.
