really? perhaps the only real grasp of music tonality theory i have is my
bass, then. i'm a natural bass player - been playing for about 11 years
now. i only picked it back up a year or so ago and started diddling with
it. now i'm having psycho fun with it. ever since i recently read an
interview with wendy carlos from a few years back where she was talking
about the making of _switched-on bach 2000_ and how she had to set up
completely alternate tuning systems for some of his classics, i've been
all over this alternate tuning business. currently, my bass is
well-tempered, but after this email i'm tempted to try some microtonal
tunings (a programmable bass tuner was the best $90 i ever spent). ;)
