wow! harry has a mean ear. i recall taking a class he taught at the NGSW many years ago. if i recall correctly it was on microtonality - namely quarter tones. pretty sure it was harry...

thanks for the chart!

cool! that class was a little over my head at the time but i've since gotten into going off the grid. not so much in my guitar playing as in composition. so many more notes!!

Jzilla,
I realize I cover a lot of material in a short time. I do see the deer in the head lights look on occasion. I generally stop, or slow down when I see what Scott Henderson coined as "trout mouth" :-)

Seriously, you got it, the idea is to expose and inspire, then work for years.
Most of the students get the ideas, yet can't apply them on the spot. That is expected :-)
