Tuning challenge/invitation   Message List

Hi all,

I have this little piece for piano, flute, oboe, and bassoon that I
originally wrote in a while ago in 12TET (key of E major). Not sure if
it's finished yet (I might add a little more to it), but for the
upcoming MMM Day I'd like to render it using a different tuning scheme,
and I've been having trouble finding one that sounds good to me. I'm
not even sure if I'm retuning it right (I'm using Scala).

Anyway, I thought I'd offer up the midi file for anyone to play with who
would like to try their hand at finding a suitable retuning and helping
me render it into a sound file. I'll share credit with whoever comes up
with a solution I like.

I'm also open to collaborating on the piece itself, if someone is
inspired to add to it. I wrote it in Noteworthy Composer, and I'll
share that file if you want to work with it in that form.

Here's the file: http://mysterybear.net/files/SundayAfternoon.mid

I just want to sound good. :-) Sorry, I know that's not helpful. All I can really say is that the most important thing to me is to emphasize smoothness in...

I should mention that Charles Lucy was nice enough to make a Lucy-Tuned version of this piece last year. Since then, I slowed the tempo a bit and changed the...
