Fugue on Elgar's Enigma Theme [Microtonal, 50 Adaptive Just Intonation]


A Fugue on Elgar's Enigma Theme, for Organ, in 200-equal division of the octave. In two sections, 200-edo is reduced to 50-edo, close to Zarlino's meantone (2/7-comma). In the other two sections, 200-edo is used as adaptive just intonation (à la Vicentino) in that 50-edo fifths, minor thirds, and harmonic sevenths are raised by 6 cents, whereas 16/9-sevenths are lowered by 12 cents.
