---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment I've been tuning our Wurlitzer/Samick C153 baby grand to well temperaments. We didn't like Young (G flat major thirds, D-F rough) and ended up trying Barnes "Bach" Well Temperament. We have enjoyed it. My wife plays everything from Bach to Katchaturian on it. Mind you the Katchaturian probably would be slightly less colorful if it was ET. We have found that we are preferring the well-temperaments. I did a gig of tuning several pianos a day for more than a week, all ET, and I was struck how bland it sounds. ;-) Andrew Anderson Las Cruces, NM At 04:48 PM 1/21/2004 +0000, you wrote: >Hello Avery >Thanks for posting this temperament.
