==Consonance of Cassandra triads==  
==Consonance of Cassandra triads==  


The 13:11 and 14:11 dyads both reside near local [[harmonic entropy]] maxima. This, as well as the fact that the triadic just approximations are 242:286:364, do not make the Cassandra triads sound appealing as consonances.
The 13:11 and 14:11 dyads both reside near local [[harmonic entropy]] maxima due to falling almost halfway between a septimal and a pental consonance. This, as well as the fact that the triadic just approximations are 242:286:364, do not make the Cassandra triads sound appealing as consonances.


However, appearances can be deceiving. I (Mason Green) find that Cassandra triads sound //great// harmonically, at least as good as 12edo ones if not better, and I have a theory as to why.
