I remember seeing bassoon fingerings for 19 or 31 tone equal temperaments on
the web a while ago. I think Paul Erlich pointed them out. Does Paul or
anyone else remember where these were ?

Thanks

Dear Ara,

The 31-Tone ET chart that I devised is in PITCH I:4, as well as on the
internet (search under bassoon and my name). It was also published in the
Double Reed several years ago (the contents of which is also on the 'net). I
do not know of a complete 19-Tone ET chart for bassoon. I did play some 19
in Jon Catler's piece Joint, but it had only a subset.
