:::: The song "Folly of a Drunk", is a song that is meant to go along with a scene of a book I'm trying to write. Specifically, as per the name, it goes together with a scene in which a character gets drunk and makes a fool of himself while humming snatches of this same tune- unaware that the song was written in part to basically make fun of the stupid things that drunks do. I hope this make some level of sense. --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 12:46, 31 October 2020 (UTC)

::::: I also listened to the tune just now and I agree that melodic quartertones are easy for my ear to follow (albeit I’ll agree with George Secor that as a melodic step quartertone is a bit small and tends to be recognized more as a dynamics feature, like a glide, and not an element of melody; but here that glide-iness AFAIU is just bull’s eye), but the harmonic shifts are sudden and quick and I’m left puzzled but can’t grow an anticipation for harmonic movements. This is easily an effect of that this harmonic system is novel to me and those moves aren’t repeated several times like e. g. Sevish does. Aura, thank you for showing this piece to us, but I’d be glad if maybe in another piece the interesting harmony bits would be exposed in more detail and a bit slower for an untrained ear to follow! :) --[[User:Arseniiv|Arseniiv]] ([[User talk:Arseniiv|talk]]) 18:51, 31 October 2020 (UTC)
