Resumo Os sistemas microtonais t^emsido alvo de interesse de m´usicose pesquisadores nas ´ultimasd´ecadas. O desenvolvimento dessas pesquisas vem sendo beneficiado pelo avan¸co das ferramentas digitais no campo da Computa¸c~aoMusical. No presente trabalho, apre- sentamos o conceito de Sistema Microtonal, atrav´esde uma an´alisealg´ebricados compo- nentes b´asicosdas rela¸c~oesintervalares crom´aticas subjacentes `asescalas musicais. Base- ados nessa an´alise,desenvolvemos uma biblioteca na linguagem de programa¸c~ao Python para auxiliar pesquisadores, compositores e estudantes na investiga¸c~aoe aplica¸c~aopr´atica de sistemas microtonais. Nossa investiga¸c~ao´ebaseada nos trabalhos de Gerald Balzano, Paul Zweifel, Mark Gould e Kristie Kennedy. Palavras-chave: Sistemas Microtonais. Teoria dos Grupos. Diagrama de Balzano. Com- puta¸c~aoMusical. Biblioteca Python. Abstract Microtonal systems have been used and studied by musicians and researchers in recent decades. The development of digital tools in the field of Computer Music increased the interest in this academic and artistic domain. In the present work, we define the concept of Microtonal System, through an algebraic analysis of the basic components of the chromatic interval relations underlying the musical scales. Based on this analysis, we developed a library in the Python programming language to assist researchers, composers and students in the investigation and practical application of microtonal systems. Our research is based on the works of Gerald Balzano, Paul Zweifel, Mark Gould and Kristie Kennedy. Keywords: Microtonal Systems. Group Theory. Balzano Diagram. Computer Music. Python Library.

    Andrián Pertout Three Microtonal Compositions: The Utilization of Tuning Systems in Modern Composition Volume 1 Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Produced on acid-free paper Faculty of Music The University of Melbourne March, 2007 Abstract Three Microtonal Compositions: The Utilization of Tuning Systems in Modern Composition encompasses the work undertaken by Lou Harrison (widely regarded as one of America’s most influential and original composers) with regards to just intonation, and tuning and scale systems from around the globe – also taking into account the influential work of Alain Daniélou (Introduction to the Study of Musical Scales), Harry Partch (Genesis of a Music), and Ben Johnston (Scalar Order as a Compositional Resource). The essence of the project being to reveal the compositional applications of a selection of Persian, Indonesian, and Japanese musical scales utilized in three very distinct systems: theory versus performance practice and the ‘Scale of Fifths’, or cyclic division of the octave; the equally-tempered division of the octave; and the ‘Scale of Proportions’, or harmonic division of the octave championed by Harrison, among others – outlining their theoretical and aesthetic rationale, as well as their historical foundations. The project begins with the creation of three new microtonal works tailored to address some of the compositional issues of each system, and ending with an articulated exposition; obtained via the investigation of written sources, disclosure

  • Xii - Les Tempéraments Justes De Plus De 12 Divisions (19, 31, 43)
    XII - LES TEMPÉRAMENTS JUSTES DE PLUS DE 12 DIVISIONS (19, 31, 43) 1. INTRODUCTION Les acousticiens et théoriciens de la musique ont toujours été affrontés au problème de l’Intonation Juste. Depuis Ramis (ou Ramos) en 1482 [34], jusqu’à Helmholtz en 1863 [8], ils ont essayé de concevoir des échelles à intervalles consonants. Ça a repris en Europe dès le début du XXe siècle pour continuer outre- atlantique jusqu’à nos jours. Plusieurs fois on a eu recours à des octaves de plus de 12 divisions, ce qui donne des intervalles inférieurs au demi-ton, on parle alors de micro-tons. Continuons de parler de Ton dans le sens le plus large, ou bien d’Unité. Le système de F. Salinas (1557) était composé de 19 degrés et était censé être juste [48]. Défendu par Woolhouse au XIXe siècle, il sera relancé au XXe siècle par J. Yasser [49]. Le système à 31 tons a aussi des origines anciennes, l’archicembalo conçu en 1555 par Vicentino avait déjà 31 touches 1. Il avait pour objectif, entre autres, d’introduire des quarts de ton pour interpréter les madrigaux du napolitain Gesualdo. Etudié par le physicien C. Huygens à l’aide d’arguments scientifiques, il est basé sur la présence de la quinte, de la tierce et de la septième justes. 1 Comme dans tous les domaines, la Renaissance a connu une grande effervescence en théorie musicale. On a ressorti les anciens manuscrits (Aristoxène, Euclide, Nicomaque, Ptolemé,…), mais aussi hélas ceux de Boèce, unique référence du haut Moyen Âge. Le système de Vicentino n’avait donc rien d’insolite.

  • Divisions of the Tetrachord Are Potentially Infinite in Number
    EDITOR'S INTRODUCTION ''''HEN I WAS A young student in California, Lou Harrison suggested that I send one of my first pieces, Piano Study #5 (forJPR) to a Dr. Chalmers, who might publish it in his journal Xenbarmonikon. Flattered and fascinated, I did, and John did, and thus began what is now my twenty year friendship with this polyglot fungus researcher tuning guru science fiction devotee and general everything expert. Lou first showed me the box of papers, already called Divisions ofthe Tetracbord, in 1975. I liked the idea of this grand, obsessive project, and felt that it needed to be availablein a way that was, likeJohn himself, out of the ordinary. When Jody Diamond, Alexis Alrich, and I founded Frog Peak Music (A Composers' Collective) in the early 80S, Divisions (along with Tenney's then unpublished Meta + Hodos) was in my mind as one of the publishing collective's main reasons for existing, and for calling itself a publisher of"speculative theory." The publication of this book has been a long and arduous process. Re­ vised manuscripts traveled with me from California to Java and Sumatra (John requested we bring him a sample of the local fungi), and finally to our new home in New Hampshire. The process of writing, editing, and pub­ lishing it has taken nearly fifteen years, and spanned various writing tech­ nologies. (When John first started using a word processor, and for the first time his many correspondents could actually read his long complicated letters, my wife and I were a bit sad-we had enjoyed reading his com­ pletely illegible writing aloud as a kind of sound poetry).

  • Comprehensibility and Ben Johnston's String Quartet No. 9
    Comprehensibility and Ben Johnston’s String Quartet No. 9 * Laurence Sinclair Willis NOTE: The examples for the (text-only) PDF version of this item are available online at: hp://www.mtosmt.org/issues/mto.19.25.1/mto.19.25.1.willis.php KEYWORDS: just intonation, Ben Johnston, twentieth-century music, Harry Partch, string quartet ABSTRACT: Ben Johnston’s just-intonation music is of startling aural variety and presents novel solutions to age-old tuning problems. In this paper, I describe the way that Johnston reoriented his compositional practice in the 1980s as evidenced in his musical procedures. Johnston became aware of the disconnect between Western art music composers and their audiences. He therefore set about composing more accessible music that listeners could easily comprehend. His String Quartet No. 9 gives an instructive example of the negotiation between just intonation and comprehensibility. By integrating unusual triadic sonorities with background tonal relationships, Johnston reveals an evolution of just-intonation pitch structures across the work. This paper provides an example of an analytical method for exploring Johnston’s works in a way that moves beyond simply describing the structure of his system and into more musically tangible questions of form and process. Received June 2016 Volume 25, Number 1, May 2019 Copyright © 2019 Society for Music Theory [1.1] Perhaps the best way to introduce the music explored in this article is for you, the reader, to listen to some of it. So, please listen to Audio Example 1.(1) In some ways this music is very familiar: you heard a string quartet playing tonal music, and they used similar devices of phrasing that we might hear in a classical or romantic quartet.

  • Quarter Tone - Wikipedia
    Quarter tone - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quarter_tone Quarter tone A quarter tone ( play ) is a pitch halfway between the usual notes of a chromatic scale or an interval about half as wide (aurally, or logarithmically) as a semitone, which itself is half a whole tone. Quarter tones divide the octave by 50 cents each, and have 24 different pitches. Quarter tones, or the quarter-tone scale (24 equal temperament), was proposed by 19th-century music theorists Heinrich Richter in 1823[1] and Mikha'il Mishaqah about 1840.[2] Composers who have written music using this scale include: Pierre Boulez, Julián Carrillo, Mildred Couper, George Enescu, Alberto Ginastera, Gérard Grisey, Alois Hába, Ljubica Marić, Charles Ives, Tristan Murail, Krzysztof Trumpet with 3 normal valves and a quartering on Penderecki, Giacinto Scelsi, Ammar El Sherei, the extension valve (right) Karlheinz Stockhausen, Tui St. George Tucker, Ivan Alexandrovich Wyschnegradsky, and Iannis Xenakis. (See List of quarter tone pieces.) Contents Types of quarter tones Playing quarter tones on musical instruments Music of the Middle East Quarter tone scale In popular music Ancient Greek tetrachords Interval size in equal temperament See also References Further reading External links Types of quarter tones The term quarter tone can refer to a number of different intervals, all very close in size. For example, some 17th- and 18th-century theorists used the term to describe the distance between a sharp and enharmonically distinct flat in mean-tone temperaments (e.g., D♯–E♭).[1] In the quarter-tone scale, also called 24-tone equal 24 temperament (24-TET), the quarter tone is 50 cents, or a frequency ratio of √2 or approximately 1.0293, and divides the octave into 24 equal steps (equal temperament).
