Sauter in Arlington?

HI,
The scale was C3 to C5 low to high and tuned in 1/6 comma. Or at least they
tried to tune it that way but it seemed to me that it was not quite an even
division of the notes between octaves. Sounded like a hysterical temperment.
If any one who knew how to play the instrument was there they did not play
while I was there. There was one lady who played on one of the other
instruments (very well too) when asked to play the same pieces on the 96er
did so then proceded to figure out a major scale without too much hastle.
