Feldman's Piano - a correction

[William R. Monroe]

Hi Conrad (and anyone else still interested),

I just received an email from one who has done the tunings at the Feldman 
show on occasion.  When he tuned (sometime in 2006), it was still in 1/7' 
meantone.  So, the 1/7' comment was spot on.  I don't think BB has tuned for 
that show (correct me if I'm wrong here, BB).  So, at least in the recent 
past, it appears BB is mistaken.  It may very well be that the piano is no 
longer tuned that way.  I do not know.  Posted only for the sake of 
completeness.
