Ok, so for good measure I recorded some nonsense (albeit after a few glasses), do not judge for artistic artistry.
First a C major chord
then some nonsense piece that safely stays with major C,F,G chords
then some vaguely jazzy nonsense also starting in C major but with sixth and seventh, ninth chords
Last, the circle of fifths from C down to F#
1. With equal tuning
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/4685..._equal.mp3
As expected, everything sounds ok (tuning-wise, not the playing
)
2. With a tuning which ensures pure C major thirds and fifths
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/4685...uremaj.mp3
The C major triad sounds a bit unfamiliar, but purer in the second case, and the F and G major triads sound good; the simple piece therefore sounds quite clear, the piece with jazzy chords starts to go wrong, and the circle of fifths just steers towards catastrophe at F#.
