The revision contents are below, presented both in the original Wikispaces Wikitext format, and in HTML exactly as Wikispaces rendered it.
Original Wikitext content:
The music of the middle-eastern (arabic/turkish/persian) cultural area is one of the important microtonal music traditions (along with the [[Indian|indian]] tradition). A central concept is "maqam", which corresponds more or less (but not exactly) to the western "mode". An introduction into maqam theory can be found on [[http://www.maqamworld.com/|http://www.maqamworld.com]]. There have been various endeavours, also in recent history, to establish a common tuning standard. A few of these are described in [[http://www.ozanyarman.com/misc/Doctorate%20Thesis.pdf|Ozan Yarman's dissertation]]. However, none of these endeavours have been really successful (at least not as successful as 12edo in the western music). [[24edo]] has found a certain dissemination, especially in the arabic world; but many consider it a bad compromise. Ozan Yarman's proposal for a new tuning standard for maqam music is a 79-tone [[MOSScales|MOS]] subset of [[159edo]]. It is described in detail in his dissertation. A short description (quote of a posting on the yahoo tuning list) is [[79MOS 159edo|here]].
