'''297/256''', the '''Alpharabian ultramajor second''', is the basic ultramajor second in the 2.3.11 [[subgroup]].  It differs from the [[22/19]] undevicesimal semifourth by [[513/512]], and differs from [[7/6]] by [[896/891]].  As suggested by its name, it is reached by tacking a [[33/32]] quartertone onto [[9/8]].


In tonal music, it is a useful paradiatonic interval, as a 1/1-27/22-16/11-512/297 chord can be built on top of a note situated at this distance from the Tonic, and this chord can lead into a 1/1-6/5-3/2 triad built on the note located at 5/4 above the Tonic.
