Wow, the mind boggles. That's so interesting; the dealer imposes meantone temperament (on a jazz trio, no less - with all the chromatic haarmonic stuff going on) and nobody thinks that's odd, or questions it?! I wonder how the pianist feels? (Who knows, maybe he's an adventurous sort of jazzer, and thinks it's bizarre and interesting - he does sound like an easygoing sort, when Feldman engages him in conversation). I'll definitely have to listen to that show again : ) Now I'm really wondering whether it was the tuning or the temperament that I heard as being "off" somehow.
