What sonorities and moods have we lost in playing music in \"equal temperament\"—the equal division of the octave into twelve notes that has become our standard tuning method? Thanks to \u003ci\u003eHow Equal Temperament Ruined Harmony\u003c\/i\u003e, \"we may soon be able to hear for ourselves what Beethoven really meant when he called B minor 'black'\" (\u003ci\u003eWall Street Journal\u003c\/i\u003e).In this \"comprehensive plea for more variety in tuning methods\" (\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e), Ross W. Duffin presents \"a serious and well-argued case\" (\u003ci\u003eGoldberg Magazine\u003c\/i\u003e) that \"should make any contemporary musician think differently about tuning\" (\u003ci\u003eSaturday Guardian\u003c\/i\u003e).\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n                        \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                        \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRoss W.
