Updated Article: "Renold-II Temperament ("The Scale of Fifths") by Maria Renold.
In an earlier article on this blog I have written about and explained the
"Renold-I" temperament, the first version of the "Scale of Fifths" that Maria Renold made in 1962. If you have not
read that article yet, then I suggest you do so, just to be able to place everything in perspective.
After Maria Renold created - what later would be known as the "Renold-I" temperament - she continue experimenting and developing her concept. The result is what is known as the "Renold-II" (also known as "Middle Tuning" temperament.
In this article I will share more information about how the Renold-II temperament works. How this temperament works was explained by
Bevis Stevens in "
A Handbook on the Middle Tuning" (2nd edition). This work is shared (in PDF format) online at
www.eurythmy.co.nz. You can download it there to have more information then I will provide in this article.
