A '''tonality diamond''' is a symmetric organization of [[Otonality and utonality|otonal and utonal]] chords based around a central note and bounded by an [[Odd limit|odd-limit]]. First formalized in the [[7-odd-limit]] by [[wikipedia:Max_Friedrich_Meyer|Max F. Meyer]] in 1929, the idea became central to the music and theories of [[Harry Partch]], who built his tonal system around the [[11-odd-limit]] tonality diamond. Tonality diamonds have been used both conceptually (such as for [[Target tuning|targets]] of [[temperaments]]) and practically (such as for instrument layouts) in xenharmonics ever since. | A '''tonality diamond''' is a symmetric organization of [[Otonality and utonality|otonal and utonal]] chords based around a central note and bounded by an [[Odd limit|odd-limit]].
