1edo: Difference between revisions

== Theory ==

One note repeated in octaves is an example of a [[trivial temperament]] (specifically, it is the trivial temperament of the [[2-limit]]); most existing styles of music would find little use for a single set of octaves. That said, it does retain some musical value, particularly as 1edo is contained as a subset of every [[edo]]. In terms of [[JI]] representation, all [[prime harmonic]]s but 2 are tempered to some amount of octaves.

The first piece of ''Musica ricercata'' by {{w|György Ligeti}} simulates 1edo by playing only one pitch class (A) throughout different octaves on the piano, though the piano is not itself tuned to 1edo. The last chord of the piece uses another pitch class (D), breaking the pattern.
