We present Bach's Prelude BWV 999 (originally for the Lute), arranged for Organ (Gedackt 8+4 & Bassoon) transposed into Em, and tuned into EAGLE 53, a tuning devised by John O'Sullivan.
Eagle 53 is centred around E, and has the following cent figures:
E= 0
113.2
203.8
317
384.9
498.1
588.7
701.9
815.1
883
1018.9
1086.8;
essentially, it consists in three pieces of the pyhtagorean chain of fifths: from Db to Bb, from A to F#, from E# to C##. It can be used in a more diatonic fashion though, by avoiding the use of triads on D and F#.
