'''29/1''', the '''29th harmonic''', is the [[harmonic]] past [[28/1]] and before [[30/1]]. It is about four [[octave]]s and ten [[semitone]]s in size. Used in harmony, it sounds particularly wide: if the base note is F1, the higher note will be about Eb6. That is for all practical purposes beyond the range of {{w|choral music}}.

Used in harmony, it sounds particularly wide: if the base note is F1, the higher note will be about Eb6. That is for all practical purposes beyond the range of {{w|choral music}}. However, it remains useful in some instrumental solos and ensembles. It is the basis of [[29-limit]] harmony, as many 29-limit intervals can be expressed as the difference between this and another harmonic. | ||
