Animated Score Rite of Spring Fragment D in Adaptive JI for Brass Ensemble

rite

I have been archiving past projects and I ran across this fragment of The Rite of Spring (French: Le Sacre du printemps; Russian: «Весна священная», Vesna svyashchennaya, ‘sacred spring’) and decided it would be interesting to render it in adaptive just intonation since that has been a recent topic of interest on the Facebook group Xenharmonic Alliance II. The video is an overlay of the score and the real time adjustments made by the Kontakt included factory script. I selected the factory brass ensemble which in my opinion rendered a nice version of one of my favorite passages of the piece. YMMV of course. You can find the video here for download.

NOTE: Sonar has a a very odd sense of accidentals if you do not explicitly apply a key.
