I have some new additions to my music page:

* An FTP site with musical MP3's (initially with low-quality versions of
the files I've sent to the Tuning Punks site, and sometime later I'll be
converting all my old RA's to MP3 and putting them here).

* 15-TET and 22-TET MIDI versions of Galticeran (originally written 14
years ago for piano).

* Three of John deLaubenfels' retuned versions of my MIDI files.

Kudos as always, especially to Galticeran! The 22-tone version seems so
much more musical than any of the others. I wonder why that is, in this
case...

Herman Miller wrote me off-list,

Maybe that helps answer your question? My new sound card (Yamaha DS-XG) has
the best piano sounds I've ever heard, so I noticed these differences
immediately.

I noticed that, but I think I just like the 22-tet tuning better.
