*See the “trailer” of the movie Gravity to hear an example of Peter Cohn’s non-equal temperament tuning. The musical piece used in the trailer is from the recording, INNER VOICE: PETER MINKLER, VIOLA WITH LURA JOHNSON, PIANO, NOV. 2010, CENTAUR RECORDS. This recording is available for purchase, and is highly recommended. The cd was released and then used in a “trailer” for the movie. Interestingly, the piano for this work was tuned using the non-equal temperament, which is something Peter Cohn offers as well as the equal temperament or the contemporary “standard tuning”.
