For those of you who think that ET rules...

The well know pianist did not notice that the piano was not in ET, only 
that it was impeccably tuned.

However the audience experience was very responsive. Broadwood Best on a 
S&S D.  Piano & cello.

Beethoven , Medelssohn, Brahms w/ Rachmaninoff for an encore (which was 
exceptionally stirring).


In WT, the treble sounds clearer/cleaner.  Believe it, or not.


The string players who run this chamber music festival are more receptive 
to intonation, especially
placement of the thirds. They immediately accepted a WT.

Now my next victim is the conductor of the local symphony.  Maybe the neat 
time John O'Conner
comes around (soon) I can offer an appropriate temperament for the 
program.  :-)

Veritunerly Yours,

Jon Page
