'''Just intonation''' ('''JI''') is an approach to [[musical tuning]] where [[pitch]]es are chosen in a way such that every [[interval]] can be expressed as a whole-number [[ratio]] of the [[frequencies]] of pitches. '''Just intervals''' naturally occur in the [[harmonic series]] as intervals between any two [[harmonic]]s of a fundamental tone produced with a harmonic [[timbre]]. For instance, an interval with a frequency ratio of [[3/2]] appears between the 2nd and 3rd harmonics. Just intonation is particularly efficient when used with harmonic instruments, because it allows the tuning and the timbre to reinforce each other. | '''Just intonation''' ('''JI''') is an approach to [[musical tuning]] where [[pitch]]es are chosen in a way such that every [[interval]] can be expressed as a whole-number [[ratio]] of the [[frequencies]] of pitches.
