Re: [Finale] TAN: musical note values in OZ?

[Daniel Wolf]

In all seriousness, an equal division of the octave into ten parts was 
proposed during the French Revolutionary era.  Although it has musical 
qualities of its own -- it's excellent as a equidistant pentatonic with 
chromatic neighboring or substitution tones -- one can surmise that the 
incompatibility of 10tet with a diatonic and triadic tonal traditional 
represented too great a leap for event the most revolutionary of musicians.
