Harmony

Deneb does not have sevens and as such the most simple approach to no-twos harmony (using the chord 3:5:7) does not work. Due to its approximation of 11/9 and 11/5, the otonal chord 5:9:11 and its utonal inversion 45:55:99 is well-represented. The utonal chord in particular sounds surprisingly consonant for a no-twos chord, while the otonal chord sounds more strained but still somewhat consonant.
