---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Bill and list... I was interested in your comment that "not being able to tell the differe= nce" was a compliment and a goal of the EBVT. I have been experimenting = with EVBT over the past few months and that has been my experience. In my teaching studio I used an EBVT on our grand piano (a samik stencil = which we borrow from a local dealer). The only teacher who expressed a d= islike was the one I told about the new temperment. We used this piano f= or recitals in early May and no one noticed the difference, except me. W= hat I noticed was that beginner and elementary pieces (Alfred Basic Metho= d Levels 1A - 6) had a more stable sound than with ET. I was actually mo= re comfortable hearing these pieces in EBVT! The temperment stood up ver= y well with our advanced students also. One of my teachers made the stat= ement that the piano sounded "darker", a compliment I guess... I've noticed several times that when I put a very nice ET tuning on a pia= no, the student player in the house will begin to play "Lightly Row" or s= omething and I will begin to squirm, not at the proficency but the sound = coming out of the piano! This dosen't seem to happen when I use the EBVT.= Is this because of the simple arrangements in elementary piano music (Ha= rmonic 5ths, 6ths ect. for accompaniement)? Has any one else noticed thi= s quality of this temperment? Mitch Ruth DeMossville, KY PS For those of you who may not know....
