[CAUT] electronic tuning device preference?

[Ed Sutton]

Fred-

Since it is first of all the performer we tune for, may I ask:

Did you find your performance of Villa-Lobos in any way changed by Moore or 
ET temperaments?

Do you think Villa-Lobos's music was influenced by a sensitivity on his part 
to various temperaments?

Do you think the style of Villa-Lobos's music is one that displays subtle 
differences in tempering?

My concern is not  the vote of the audience, or even the approval of a 
tuning expert, but to get some clarity about the circumstances in which 
differing temperaments might make a difference for particular performers.  I 
would like to discern whether the difference is a genuine response to the 
change of temperament, and not just a hyped response to a tuner's sales 
pitch.

If/when a change of temperament can really help or hinder a performer, we 
should know what to offer.
