Tsăhongtamdi's most influential recommendation was against using fixed-pitch instruments; he argued that they were expressively limited. This recommendation was lasting in influence - most instruments used in traditional Talman music are flexible-pitch instruments. Since Mărotłism banned the killing of mammals but not of fish, fish glue and hoof glue could be used for repairs instead of hide glue. Hence viola organistas and harpsichords tuned to tonality diamond scales were commonly used in imperial Windermere music. | Tsăhongtamdi's most influential recommendation was against using fixed-pitch instruments; he argued that they were expressively limited.
