Re: [tuning] Digest Number 3707

Thanks Carl and Paul for helping me out while I'm in digest form: y'all
actually get what I'm saying.

Neil, BTW, you sound great in Joint on Jon Catler's new CD on the PITCH
label, you got your answers from Carl and Paul.

For further exploration, since there is no concept of a musical standard of
pitch (what with differences between churches of the same cities and towns, and
a whole tone or more difference between organ tuning infuenced instruments
(e.g., trumpets) and those a whole tone apart (kammertone).

Basically, with a myriad of scales due to a well temperament, a composer
could imagine a tune and then pick out the key that would most emphasize the tunes
sentiment, even for microtonal reasons.

all best, Johnny

Wow, I wish I knew what you were talking about, and I bet Carl does
too. But seriously, I'll have to order a batch of PITCH CDs real soon!
