==== By John O'Sullivan ====

O'Sullivan recommends readers to listen to his own compositions in Eagle 53 tuning, as he accurately follows the rules that he laid out for how to write with the tuning, meaning his works most closely reflect how the tuning is designed to sound.

The following is O'Sullivan's playlist of 34 musical examples using the Eagle 53 tuning, including covers of some popular [[12edo]] songs, uploaded to his YouTube channel "@johnsmusic7". It is highly recommended for examples of 'what Eagle 53 sounds like':

==== By other composers ====

Works by other composers may deviate from the rules of the tuning, so they are not recommended for getting an idea of 'how Eagle 53 sounds', however they are still valuable pieces of music worth a listen in their own right:
