| Chord information |
10:12:15 is a utonal minor triad, known as the just minor triad, classical minor triad, or Ptolemaic minor triad. It is a common chord that appears as a counterpart to the widespread otonal major triad of 4:5:6, with the major third replaced by a minor third. It occurs as a minor triad in the diatonic scale of meantone temperament, as the minor third formed from stacking three perfect fourths octave reduced, 32/27, is equated with 6/5 due to vanishing of 81/80.
It is not the only minor triad in just intonation; other minor triads include 54:64:81 (Pythagorean minor triad), 6:7:9 (septimal minor triad), and 16:19:24.
