Re: Re: [tuning] 17-tone concert archive]

Hi Taylan! I can read your post. You are my second acquaintance from Netherlands. I downloaded and listened to your piece. Nice to know that interest in microtonality around the world is proliferating! It was a refreshing composition, though a bit sparse in texture. I assume you were allowing room for listeners to appreciate non 12-tET sounds? Keep up the good work!

Oz.

Hi Ozan & group,

I don't think I've posted before, but I've been reading along for some
time. Let me introduce myself: I am 19 years old, I study composition at
the royal conservatory in the Hague. I also study comparative
linguistics at Leiden. And I've written a piece for the 17t piano project!

For some reason, my piece isn't in the player, but is available for
download at the bottom of the page.

It's part of my "past piano" series, all for differently tuned pianos
(there's even a 12tet piece in the series! :-)
The title is a bit complicated to explain for now.

The harmonies heard are all derived from a 9-13-23 chord, which, is very
accurately present in the 17t. I could also get a 3rd harmonic from 13,
39 - since the fifth is a bit sharp & the 13 was a bit flat. I really
love the 13/9 and the 23/18!

I hope you enjoy it.

All the best,

Taylan
