//A brief example of using "magic temperament" http://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/Magic+family
to equate the intervals 36/35 and 25/24 into one "semitone" step, specifically to distinguish between seventh chords using 7:4 and 9:5, i.e. harmonic 4:5:6:7 chords and traditional "dominant" chords tuned with a 6:5 above the 3:2. For analog organ and faded chrysanthemum-Cameron Bobro//

//A brief demonstration of the near-Just musical temperament which flattens the pure major third of 5:4 by a few cents, such that 5 major thirds does not exceed 3:1 (a pure fifth + 1 octave), but meets it precisely. In a purely tuned system, the thirds would exceed 3:1 by what is known as the small diesis, (a ratio 3125/3072, about thirty cents). This temperament, then, brings (almost) pure thirds and pure fifths together. Cameron Bobro//

//The earliest implementation (by happy accident, it seems) of this temperament was, to my knowledge, by Paul von Janko over a century ago. More recently, an online tuning community has elaborated many precise variations, calling the temperament "magic".. This piece is a demonstration of the array of pitches created by using 22 generators (the slightly tempered 5:4) within the octave, an approach which creates a "moment of symmetry", with all pitches separated by the same two intervals. This has many curious repercussions, creating some musical possibilities and restricting others. Cameron Bobro//</pre></div>
