The nine note [[MOS_scale | MOS]] of the [[Negri]] temperament is an excellent framework for both melody and harmony. In particular, this 9 note scale contains two 4:5:6:7 tetrads, and two 1/7:1/6:1/5:1/4 tetrads, and with a suitably tuned generator is the smallest [[Rothenberg propriety | proper]] MOS with 9 or fewer notes where these tetrads are as well in tune. The 13th harmonic is also easily accessible, with the octave reduced 13th harmonic (13/8) being tuned the same as 8/5. | The nine note [[MOS_scale | MOS]] of the [[Negri]] temperament is an excellent framework for both melody and harmony.

Ray Perlner coined names for the 9 modes of Negri[9], mostly based on the fact that, in 19EDO, a 7-note subset of Negri-9 is equivalent to the well-known double harmonic scale. e.g. Mode 1, "Austro-Hungarian Minor" is spelled A B C Db D# E F Gb G# A' and contains the Hungarian Minor scale, A B C D# E F G# A' as a subset. These are denoted "Ray's name." | Ray Perlner coined names for the 9 modes of Negri[9], mostly based on the fact that, in 19EDO, a 7-note subset of Negri-9 is equivalent to the well-known double harmonic scale. e.g. Mode 1, "Austro-Hungarian Minor" is spelled A B C Db D# E F Gb G# A' and contains the Hungarian Minor scale, A B C D# E F G# A' as a subset.
