19-edo

I'd argue that 99.9% of all mainstream music can be adapted into 19-edo without any effort whatsoever. The article mentions only 31-edo, but really 31-edo is to 19-edo as 19-edo is to 12-edo.

That said, I'm not even sure if pieces adapted into 19-edo even vaguely qualify as xenharmonic, although, the same ought to apply to "standard" pieces faithfully adapted into 31-edo, for the same reasons.

I have a fairly extensive collection of recordings of other people's music I recorded in 19-edo, going back decades - none of it particularly good nor interesting, in my opinion.

Bohlen-Pierce

I'd love to hear what something like Bouree would sound like in BP! I can imagine it'd be a heck of a lot of effort to make any sense of something with counterpoint in a system without octaves, though.
