			== My thoughts on microtonal music ==
			Music in 12-edo is great. In fact, I am not convinced that 12-edo is deserving of anything less than being the most popular tuning system used in western music... however, there is a world outside of western music that is culturally and artistically rich, and that it deserves attention as well. Even within western music, I don't think that we should box ourselves into one tuning for all. And, honestly, we don't. Nashville session players often use other temperaments- they just don't talk about them very much outside of trade circles. Rock and blues guitarists love playing slide guitar so that they can perform notes outside of equal temperament, and virtually every orchestral instrument has well known quirks that are results of different temperaments.

			I think an open minded composer could write music for 19-EDO piano along with a standard orchestra and make a piece of music that sounded just as in-tune as other pieces of music sound with a 12-EDO piano. The orchestra isn't perfectly in-tune across all instruments over those instruments' entire range anyway, so the savvy composer writes around the quirkiness of the instruments.

			Anyway, there is a pretty strong case for 31-edo and 19-edo in a western tradition- or bringing back various well temperaments or various forms of just intonation. There are reasons to look into more exotic tunings for more exotic applications. I really feel strongly about 19-edo, since it is so easy to use and generally sounds just as good as 12-edo in many contexts.
