159edo/Interval names and harmonies: Difference between revisions

Line 1:

[[159edo]] contains all the intervals of [[53edo]], however, as some of the interpretations differ due 159edo having different mappings for certain primes, those differences show up in how harmonies are constructed. It should be noted that since 159edo does a better job of representing the 2.3.11 subgroup than [[24edo]], some of the chords listed on the page for [[24edo interval names and harmonies]] carry over to this page, even though the exact sets of enharmonics differ between the two systems. Furthermore, just as with 24edo can be thought of as essentially having two fields of 12edo separated by a quartertone, 159edo can be thought of as having three fields of 53edo, each separated from the others by a third of a 53edo step on either side. This even lends to 159edo having its own variation on the [[Dinner Party Rules]]- represented here by the Harmonic Compatibility Rating and Melodic Compatibility Rating columns where 5 is a full-blown friend relative to the root and -5 if a full-blown enemy relative to the root.
