I have a suggestion for this piece if you want to take it - try Jean Jousse’s well temperament circa 1832. It’s really more of a mild meantone as there are four just major fifths in the right places, and the harmony of the 5ths vs the 3rds stands out well. It’s a somewhat unusual temperament I never see mentioned much, but quite worth checking out I think.
Thanks a lot for sharing your experience and thought on temperament in music. I'm an artist and interesting a lot in temperament theme. Could you please share with me notes in hertz for different tunings?
The chart you posted is not representing Kirnberger II temperament, it is an approximation. In the KII the 2 fifth are narrowed by half a syntonic comma and there is only one schisma.
