Hello,

I regret that I must unsubscribe to this list. Although most of the =
content is interesting, after a tour I just don't have time to wade =
through over 100 e-mails on this that and the other thing.=20

To me it should be practice, play, practice, play and more practice. I =
mean no disrespect here to any of you Tom's last e-mail was great.

This is the second time I've tried to unsubscribe. Please take me off =
the list.

I wish you all well,=20

  Tom's post on Hochiku was very informative. I was already trying to =
wade through the traditional shaku/sun vs. Western scale differences and =
this added a few more questions.

  I know you said the Hochiku were not made to a set pitch like C or C# =
but did they still conform to the standard shaku / sun sizes usually =
recognized for the later Shakuhachi? Seeing as how they were really solo =
instruments with no set pitch I was wondering if they were simply cut to =
length starting at a convienent node and ending with the root end =
regardless of whether it worked ot to 2.2, 2.3 or just somewhere in =
between?

  The flutes I build are just that. Starting and stopping with a node =
and root and sometimes falling between the recognized standards. For my =
solo playing all is well but obviously mine are not for serious study or =
playing with a friend.

  Thanks,
  Tony Miller
