I have noticed that the characteristic of any given temperament seems the
same on various pianos, but the level of brilliance can change how strongly
tempered the remote keys feel. Did you ask him why he was seeking the Jousse
tuning? And which of the two that Jorgensen presents did you use? His first
is a definite WT, with a spread in the thirds from 8 to 21 cents. Jousse's
second is so near ET one would be hard-pressed to distinguish it.
I think there are some others that are preferable. Perhaps you could
have the prof. listen to a Moore and Co. , Coleman 11, or the Wendell Natural
Syncronous????
