Description

Welcome to the Alternate Tunings Mailing List.
(Originally based at Mills College in Oakland, California, USA.)
(AKA "The Tuning List", "The Tuning Group".)

This mailing list is intended for exchanging ideas relevant to alternate musical tunings: just intonation; paratactical tunings; experimental instrument design; non-standard equal temperaments; MIDI tuning-system specs; concert postings; gamelan tunings and other non-western tunings; historical tunings; the experimental tunings of Harry Partch, Lou Harrison, Martin Bartlett, James Tenney, and so on; software reports; recordings; books; research sources, etcetera.

Happy retuning!
