Re: [Harp-L] New website: Spiral Tuning

["Rick Dempster" <rick.dempster@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hmm...I listened to the sound samples; no inducements to try this tuning
as far as my ears can stretch. Spiral appears to me to reduce the
bending palette to semitones only, for one thing. Other than that I'd
have to try one myself. There appears to be more than one tuning
here,(ie minors, natural & harmonic) but I don't hear anything that is
remarkably different from anything that come be done on  any of the easy
to get over-the-counter tunings. If someone wants to give me one I'd
have a crack at it, but there's no way I'm going to get busy filing
reeds.

Hi all,

there is a new website dedicated to the Spiral Tuning from our german 
friend Heiner KrÃger.

It's only in german language now, but I think an english version will 
follow soon.

Nevertheless, have a look, it's quite interesting and there are also 
some audio files to demonstrate the possibilities of a spiral tuned
harp.

Here it is:
www.bluesharmonica.de 

Enjoy!

Greetings,

Otto
