source file: mills2.txt Date: Thu, 27 Feb 1997 12:26:55 -0800 Subject: Wandering Tonic in 15TET From: "Kami Rousseau" Here is a I VIm IIm V7 i progression that I wrote in 15TET, with the tonic going down a comma (2^1/15) : 15 11 11 8 14 05 05 06 05 08 00 00 02 02 04 --------------- Octave separation 09 11 11 13 14 or, if you prefer C A A G- C E E F F- G- C C D- D- E- --------------- Octave separation G A A B- C In the third bar, F is 4/3, but it goes down to 21/16 in the fourth bar. What is that called? Can someone explain to me what I am hearing, and what the other possibilities are? I have a MIDI file available, if you want it. I intend to write many progressions like this, examples of wandering and non-wandering in all the common ET's. I just need some theory help to get started. -Kami ** I am a peach tree, ** Blossoming in a deep pit.
