So, this post may be a little overdue but I think it still counts. Exactly one week ago, while in Hawaii, I practiced AP. How and Why you many ask? Well, my parents bought this weird flute thing at a road side arts and crafts sale. It's alot like the flute that Mr. Thumnas (questionable spelling) plays in "The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe". So, I began playing with this "flute" and found that it was either very out of tune or it was intended to have a funky sounding scale. So I started singing solfege to figure it out. This is how the scale went:
do re mi fi sol la ti di
in relation to steps, it was
whole whole whole half whole whole whole
Is this flute merely out of tune? Or is it inventing a completely new type of scale, pushing the limits; conquering new frontiers?
