source file: mills3.txt Date: Thu, 31 Jul 1997 19:01:01 +0200 Subject: Just Intonation dictionary entry From: kollos@cavehill.dnet.co.uk (Jonathan Walker) I invite anyone who might be interested in the contents of the new Just Intonation entry in the next edition of Grove to mention what they think ought to be included (since I've just been commissioned to write it). I'm thinking of bibliographical information more than the substance of the article, but feel welcome to offer suggestions on the latter. While the larger part of the article will deal with theory and music from the late 14th to the late 16th centuries, I intend to include a fairly brief final section on modern developments in extended just intonation. The proposed word-count for the entire article is 1500 (to be agreed), but I might ask for another 500; still, this is brief, so I can't mention everything I'd like to (Partch, Tenney and Johnston will receive a mention). The deadline for the completed article is 15 November this year. I'm making this request only so that no-one need complain afterwards that I've left out something they think is of great importance. I can also send an advance copy (whenever it's ready -- probably September) to anyone who would like to make further suggestions. Perhaps more important than this, I'd ask those of you who regularly use Grove to take a look at any articles of relevance to the concerns of this list: if you think any of them urgently need revising or replacing please offer your suggestions. Grove is the first resort for so many people, both within and outside academia, and for tuning topics, they may well never look further. If you want to recommend yourself, or someone else as author/reviser of an entry, I could make initial enquiries by telephone with one of the editors (which is cheaper for me than for those of you in the States). Remember that 15 November 1997 is the general deadline, so it's not worth embarking on this process if you don't think completion of anything authoratative is possible at such short notice. This message is purely a list matter -- I don't represent Grove, nor did they suggest any of this. If you want to contact them directly about revising or writing an entry, you needn't mention this message, because they won't know anything about it.
