A '''hemipyth''' interval is an [[interval]] in the √2.√3 [[subgroup]] i.e. intervals that can be constructed by multiplying fractional powers of 2 and 3 where the exponents have a denominator at most 2. | |||
Notable hemipyth intervals include the neutral third √(3/2) = √3/√2, semioctave √2 and the semifourth √(4/3) = (√2)²/√3. | Notable hemipyth intervals include the neutral third √(3/2) = √3/√2, semioctave √2 and the semifourth √(4/3) = (√2)²/√3. | ||
