Dear Les, I would like to join Muddy Richard (and probably several others) during his visit to your room. (I hope you have a big room!) And I would like to bring a tape recorder ... Sincerely, Susan P.S. Like Richard, I'm also very interested in Pythagorean tuning, since I think it closely approximates the intonation I use on the cello. I believe that singers and string players tend to fall into Pythagorean intervals naturally, if they can play and sing in tune at all. --------------------------------------------------- At 01:08 AM 1/26/98 -0600, Richard Moody wrote: >Dear Les > If you should happen to act on Dear Ron's advice, please invite me. >I have always appreciated your knowldege of the piano industry and >have enjoyed your on-line music lessons sparse as they may be.
