This lacks the droning open string sound of the original. One solution is to tune the 2nd and 3rd string up one fret.

The repeated note on string 5 fret 14 is moved to string 3 fret 1. This also makes the switch from the 3rd to the 4th chord easier. Unfortunately this means chord shapes are no longer isomorphic. Another solution is a partial capo on fret 1 on strings 2 and 3, and perhaps 4 as well. This too avoids the 14th fret note. <b>Bolded</b> notes are capo'ed open strings:

=== Let It Be tag (Beatles) ===
My JI arrangement of the last line of the chorus of "Let It Be" as a barbershop tag, translated to 41edo. I tried to give each of the 4 lines a fun easy melody. The 2nd to last chord is an upmajor triad, the "rub" that drives the cadence.
For 6-string and 7-string guitar, in A downmajor. The 7-string would be in high-7 tuning. The guitar duplicates the voices exactly. The P8 of the bass and baritone is the P1 of the lead and tenor.

=== Kusuva Musha (traditional mbira) ===
=== Kusuva Musha (traditional mbira) ===


Kite's arrangement of a traditional mbira dzavadzimu song. Simple 5-limit harmonies, except for the 10/7 in the vB chord. But tricky circular rhythms with lots of 3-against-4. The harmonies are circular too. The key is simultaneously C downmajor down-2 and F downlydian down-4. (As with chords, the "down" before the mode name lowers the 3rd, 6th and 7th, but not the tonic, 2nd, 4th or 5th.) The guitar part is a 3-voice canon, with the 3 voices separated by diatonic 3rds. The highest voice is on the beat, as is the bass.
