here's my version of measures 44-53 of Josquin's _Ave Maria_,
in Vicentino's adaptive-JI tuning, using the _musica ficta_
accidentals as provided by Examples 2 and 3 in Jonathan Walker's article:

/tuning/files/monz/josquin-ave-maria.mid

if that link is broken, try this one (wait for it to work):

thanks -- this sounds lovely. there were a few "interesting"
moments, but it may have just been the vibrato . . . hopefully,
you'll eventually put up the score as you did for the lasso . . . i'll
reserve further comment 'till then . . .

yes, i think i know what your talking about re: those "interesting"
moments, and i do think it's the slight vibrato in the General MIDI
trombone sound. but to me this sound gives a good representation
of the effect one would hear if it were done by a small choir of
voices (perhaps two on a part).

i'll get around to making the score when i have a chance ...
been very busy, dealing with the accident etc.
