right.....well i'm sure all you worthy mathematicians can make sense out of the "Math. Anyalysis of Bach's Temperament" table.

As for me i'll just practice drawing loooops...

Interesting read.

Has anyone created a Scala file for this tuning? I'd like to give it a try.

Dammit, I wish I could undersand it all :-D. I just got a book on chords and harmony. Only a few pages into it. Probably still won't be able to understand this after i'm done with it though. Oh well!

That might be interesting for VSTi's that feature alternate tunings (like z3ta, I think). I wouldn't mind trying it out...

Wow, this is like the most splashy musicological 'scoop' since Lowinsky's "Secret Chromatic Art" book.

Probably a few obscure scholars will enjoy a few moments of A.J.P. Taylor-style celebrity for a few weeks before everyone else forgets all about it.

I wonder what the writers coleagues are saying??

Seems a little speculative, but a huge discovery if true!
