Re: [Harp-L] C in 12 poitions

I think the key to understanding Mox's post is to realize that he is 
talking about music being played only in the key of C (note the title of 
the post and the second line regarding Music in C) on various harmonicas 
tuned in other keys, and what position on a given harmonica would be 
required to play music in the key of C.  The location of the tonic is for a 
C in each case.  This will indeed result in using a CCW Circle of 4th's... 
This is a little different from the usual way of considering positions 
where we would use a CW Circle of 5ths to relate a position to a different 
music key on the same harmonica.  Unless I've got this all screwed up...
