Title "Noted Works" 1

A friend of mine (William Newbold) gave me a midi file with 7 tracks made back in 2002 or 2003. It was essentially white key music with two tempo ramp increases. What I did was set up pianoteq and GPO Aria to a 2 flat 3 sharp Lucy tuning scheme, increased the ramp velocities and note lengths, did minimal note editing and orchestrated for amplified piano (modified pianoteq grand), choir, flute, french horn, violin, and cello.

The choice of Lucy tuning was made to increase the resonance of the piano - this was done before the other instruments were added.

This is quite relaxing. I'm a late admirer of the qualities of Lucy-
tuning. I find something new to appreciate with this tone-system
everytime.

Cordially,
Oz.
