Two pianos, located at Rice University's Shepherd School of Music (Houston, Texas), are tuned to 17-EDO. Why? How? I'm a student there, and they're very nice. | Two pianos, located at Rice University's Shepherd School of Music (Houston, Texas), are tuned to 17-EDO. Why? How?

This project was created with the intention of encouraging (and at the very least not discouraging) the writing of music in the 17-tet system. There are no restrictions on eligibility; all sentient creatures are invited. We will try to have as many concerts as interest in the project can sustain. | |||
Phase One of the project centered around pieces and improvisations by Rice composers, some of which were featured on a concert on April 29, 2006. Some recordings from a subsequent recording session are available [[http://www.archive.org/details/seventeenTPP_01|over here]]. | |||
[[SeventeenTPPPhaseTwo| Phase Two]] of the project had a deadline of Sunday August 27 2006, in preparation for a concert which happened on Tuesday September 26, at 8 PM in Hirsch Orchestra Rehearsal Hall. Fourteen compositions in 17-EDO were premiered and recorded. | |||
**Phase Three i****s scheduled for Monday, May 7th, 2007.** It is to particularly feature chamber music with the pianos, as well as possibly some tunings other than 17-EDO. Music is falling into place by mid-April. | |||
