Eb,
You're very welcome. Thanks for taking the time to write. It gives me joy when my modest efforts find an appreciative audience.

I'm baaaccckkk!
I had a question.
Which was, with the maximum interval allowed being a major third, how many pentatonic scales are there?
The answer is 155.
Allowing for any of 12 starting pitches, that makes 1860.
That means, with the "fill the instrument turnaround" that I like to include, 41,856 notes.
So, 192 pages and a little over a third of a meg later, we have
Pentatonic Scales For Shakuhachi in the NOTA folder, in the usual place:

There are bound to be inaccuracies, so please let me know of any you find, and I'll make the correction asap.
(and now back to my regularly scheduled "programming"),

Thanks Geni! You should know, however, that I am forever and constantly in awe of you and all the other performing types. I've done enough solo and ensemble gigs on enough different instruments to know without a shadow of a doubt that it's not my cup of tea. I live for practice and rehearsals, with performances being a by-product that most of the time can't be avoided. So, You All The Mans! 8^) Otherwise, I sit in the comfort and safety of my personal environment, make a few keystrokes, and hope to be of some small use. Feedback, comments, and personal emails from forum members, (along with the 5200+ downloads, Thank You Everyone!), are very much appreciated, and go along way towards keeping the fires burning, so to speak.
