~~<h2>IMPORTED REVISION FROM WIKISPACES</h2>~~

'''Bayati''' is a maqam that, like all other maqams, is a [[heptatonic]] scale. It contains neutral intervals and the standard version has step pattern LLmmLLs, making it a [[modmos]] which can be derived by chromatic alteration from either the diatonic or the [[mohajira]] scale.

===In a harmonic context===

As a scale in the Western sense (and thus a scale pattern in xenharmonic theory), bayati may be called [[trachytonic]].

== In a harmonic context ==

While maqams are primarily a melodic art form, it is possible to adapt them to a harmonic context and there are several ways to do so depending on what tempering is used.

Bayati embeddings can be classified by the size of the tempered perfect fifth. On the very wide superpyth end of the spectrum, [[27edo]] gives a version that is 5533551. This embedding is very unusual because the "minor second" is actually smaller than a ~~quarter tone~~, which would make it alien even within the context of Arab music; its "major third" is also decidedly [[interseptimal]] and thus has an odd effect.
