This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Following the instructions I tried to realize the EBVT today, find a temperament a little crude and glossy (these are positives thoughts). Not sure I have obtained the correct result, but it gives some contrast in the keys and give the piano (Kaway RX2 , new) the impression to have something interesting in it . I did not find really shocking tonalities, but I am not sure I understand the explanations about the 2d inversion of the major triad in the first white keys . May I understand that the minor third will beat as the major sixth in these keys (C G D A E B F).? If yes I don't see how to hear fast beating minor thirds going up in the scale. I am persuaded that any uninteresting piano as many actual ones will benefit of these kind of temperament. May be only good pianos may be tuned in ET, as what I heard of good pianos tuned in H.T makes the piano sound like if it was older ( a little used). Not sure I can explain what I feel there. I understand too that the kind of tone you have in US pianos will accept more easily the HT than European instruments . If a piano have yet character, it may be exaggerated to add more contrast with a slightly uneven temperament. Beside, I totally agree that I find boring to try to tune absolutely perfect even chromatic progressions, and that it does not have much to do with music. A big advantage I feel there is to tune using the cycle of fifths is that it oblige you to be aware of color and musicality of the result. Cordier temperament for me is not really a temperament, only a method , as it does not take in account the differences between pianos it does not work in its theorical form always. EBVT (I will try it again) may well be much appreciated by musicians. I've find the black keys very nice, white keys a bit exaggerate sometime (crude), but I was happy of what I find.
