Group Theoretic Description of Just Intonation
In this paper we present a group theoretic description of just intonation. All possible musical intervals belonging to 5-limit just intonation can be represented by the mathematical group {235|p,q,r ∈Z}. Considering only the intervals within one octave, an isomorphism with the 2-dimensional lattice Z can be made. Plotting the intervals on the lattice according to the isomorphism, we can identif...
متن کاملIntonation analysis of ragas in Carnatic music
Intonation is a fundamental music concept that has a special relevance in Indian art music. It is characteristic of a raga and key to the musical expression of the artist. Describing intonation is of importance to several music information retrieval tasks such as developing similarity measures based on ragas and artists. In this paper, we first assess raga intonation qualitatively by analysing ...
متن کاملCharacterization of Intonation in Carnatic Music by Parametrizing Pitch Histograms
Intonation is an important concept in Carnatic music that is characteristic of a raaga, and intrinsic to the musical expression of a performer. In this paper we approach the description of intonation from a computational perspective, obtaining a compact representation of the pitch track of a recording. First, we extract pitch contours from automatically selected voice segments. Then, we obtain ...
متن کاملThe hayward tuning vine: an interface for just intonation
The Hayward Tuning Vine is a software interface for exploring the system of microtonal tuning known as Just Intonation. Based ultimately on prime number relationships, harmonic space in Just Intonation is inherently multidimensional, with each prime number tracing a unique path in space. Taking this multidimensionality as its point of departure, the Tuning Vine interface assigns a unique angle ...
متن کاملPocket Gamelan: a J2ME environment for just intonation
This paper describes on-going exploration of tuning systems through development of mobile instruments appropriate for tlie audition and performance of music composed in just intonatIon tunmgs. 1he project is a response to a transformation in computer music brought about through the introduction of wireless technologies and is motivated by a desire to enable performance of music based on just in...
