> Lots of professional MIDI instruments provide for alternative temperaments

How about the cheap and nasty MIDI instrument this recording was made with?

I actually really love the fact that this ancient tune, which by virtue of its age is one of humanity's most precious cultural possessions (worth three Great Pyramids, two complete works of Shakespeare, or about thirty Mona Lisas, i'd say), is here reproduced with all the cheesy gusto that Bad MIDI can muster. It's like printing the Odyssey on toilet paper. In comic sans.
