| Description | So far unreflected Franz Xaver Richter‘s system of temperament is presented through analysis and detailed characteristics. It shows first hand connection with musical praxis in Mannheim. In spite of the fact that Richter‘s original source was last system of tuning by Andreas Wecker- meister from the beginning of 18th century, Richter‘s undertaken system was widely popular and still cited in 1780s. Detailed manual offers conservative model of circular („good“) tem- perament with prominent key characteristics. Among advantages of this system are relatively clear thirds of central keys which are acquired by sophisticated and sensible temperament of fifths in the whole intonation scale. Additionally, this system of tuning allows functional and effective usage of peripheral keys. |
