Subj: [kl] Tuning while playing
Date: Sun, 31 Jan 1999 07:25:10 -0500

I hear a lot on the list about tuning while playing. Incredible statements (to
me) about knowing which cord you are playing so that you can adjust your
tuning depending on whether you are playing the tonic or some other note in
the chord. This morning I experimented with a few notes and my tuner seeing
how much I could "lip" the notes. I could see no appreciable change sharpening
but I could flatten a note about 5 cents but the tone became worse. I know
that something must work because I have heard small groups resolve a note
between them and it makes a great difference. So how do you do this? When do
you do this? I can't believe that you do this in 32nd notes but certainly must
at the end of a piece or passage on a sustained note.
Thanks,
Jack Dannenberg
