Re: how much do you care about your music being in strict equal temperment keys?

Hello Margaret,

Doesn't really bother me at all.  I think what happens with alternate
structures is that is messes with anticipatory pathways in the brain--you
expect it to go one way and BAM! it goes another....If you allow yourself
to accept the variations it's not as annoying and if you can get into the
variations, it becomes beautiful....

I tend towards certain scale structures as well by default, but like
others and try to get to the beauty aspect...
