Prelude in 11ET

New piece written over the past 2 days, uploaded here:

http://www.h-pi.com/downloads.html

Prelude in 11ET, my first piece in this tuning, uses octatonic scales (similar to the 13ET prelude) and lots of invertible counterpoint. It's the longest piece so far that I've written in a tuning other than 12, clocking in at almost 5 minutes, which may be ironic considering that 11ET is not often considered a tuning one wants to hear a lot of, but I like it. Versions are uploaded for piano, harp, and harpsichord. [Note: beware that depending on your synthesizer, the harp version might occasionally have bending sounds in the reverb.]

Thanks to everyone for the feedback on the Prelude in 13ET; I agree that that one is probably the most successful thus far next to the 17ET invention.

Yours,

Splendid!
