Forums Spotlight: Microtonality
The Jam Session Guitar Forum has a mammoth 6 page thread about microtonality or microtonal theory. To get you started on the concept here is an excerpt from wikipedia's entry on the subject:
"Microtonal music is music using microtones — intervals of less than an equally spaced semitone, or as Charles Ives put it, the "notes between the cracks" of the piano. A looser definition includes anything not in 12-tone equal temperament, while a stricter definition distinguishes between microtonal music (which can take 12-tone equal temperament as an audible basis), and xenharmonic music (which does not)."
