I haven't run across that argument before. Can you point me in the direction of some examples? As an aside, and I ask as a straight question meaning no offence, I would be interested to know what makes any music only playable one temperament and not another. Surely any music can be played on any instrument capable of playing it, even if it doesn't sound well (back to the original thread of this conversation). Are you suggesting that there was certain period music that would just sound completely horrible in just, or meantone? That doesn't make sense to me, though I am open to be convinced. .. mark To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
