[CAUT] Recording a tuning

[Allan Schumacker]

For  parallel  intervals such as octaves and fifths, as suggested by  
Kent Swafford, consider  La Cathedrale Engloutie from Preludes, Book  
I by Claude Debussy.  It also contains lots of  chords, and makes  
extensive use of most of the keyboard. This composition, along with  
its widely spaced parallel octaves and fifths will not only show off  
your octave tuning, but temperament tuning and unison tuning as well.  
Provided, of course, that this wonderful tuning is done on a  
wonderful piano.
