Four figures stand out as especially foundational in the emergence of xenharmonics: Harry Partch, Erv Wilson, George Secor, and Ivor Darreg. Their work helped define not only the theoretical and technical framework of xenharmonics, but also its philosophical identity. While many others have made significant contributions to the field, these four played particularly central roles in the core development of xenharmonic thought and practice. Therefore, for reasons of clarity and focus, this section focuses on them.
