Hidekazu Wakabayashi tuned a piano and harp to where the normal sharps and flats are tuned 50 cents higher in which he called [[Iceface tuning]]. Iceface tuning is one type of scordatura piano (or other keyboard instrument) tuning. A more complex type of [[Wikipedia:scordatura|scordatura]] tuning was required for a performance of Charles Ives' 4th Symphony which calls for a quarter-tone piano, but for which no quarter-tone piano was available, as described by Thomas Broadhead in [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T1G2XFVtnXU this video]. For this composition the gamut of notes needed would not be met using a simple transformation such as Iceface. ''{~~ToDo:~~ Find a legally frelly available recording using this tuning.}''

A very small number of quarter-tone pianos have been built — here are a couple of videos of these instruments being tested/played experimentally (to demonstrate their capabilities rather than to play specific compositions that would qualify for the 24edo Music section):
