<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>A fascinating and genuinely accessible guide....Educating, enjoyable, and delightfully unscary.--<em>Classical Music</em><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>What if Bach and Mozart heard richer, more dramatic chords than we hear in music today? What sonorities and moods have we lost in playing music in equal temperament--the equal division of the octave into twelve notes that has become our standard tuning method? Thanks to <em>How Equal Temperament Ruined Harmony</em>, we may soon be able to hear for ourselves what Beethoven really meant when he called B minor 'black' (<em>Wall Street Journal</em>).In this comprehensive plea for more variety in tuning methods (<em>Kirkus Reviews</em>), Ross W. Duffin presents a serious and well-argued case (<em>Goldberg Magazine</em>) that should make any contemporary musician think differently about tuning (<em>Saturday Guardian</em>).
