From: Johnny Reinhard Of course, most on this list understand that my philosophy of microtonal music is cross-cultural based. From this yardstick, _all_ music is considered microtonal, past and present. Understandably, not everyone is as catholic in their take on the intonational pie. As far as microtones in pop being out of tune, or irregular, or accidents, I think this condition exists quite rarely if at all. The days of microtones being "out-of-tune" notes I thought had passed. Question: if when looking on to a valley on a beautiful day, a hawk swerves into view through a rich blue sky, is that art? Answer: if you perceive it as art, it is art.
