Useful harmonic progressions may arise in a number of ways depending on the scale being used and depending on what chord the composer wishes to tonicize. Here, I will document some examples of how functional harmonic progressions may be created in the different scales of 15edo, with concepts that can be extended to apply to any scale. | |||
Note that I will be constructing these chord progressions from back to front; this means that we will start with the resolution, then find the dominant chord, and then find a subdominant to precede it. | Note that I will be constructing these chord progressions from back to front; this means that we will start with the resolution, then find the dominant chord, and then find a subdominant to precede it. | ||

Due to its plethora of useful structures with so few notes per octave, 15edo compositions can make great use of modulation from one structure to another; if used well, this modulation may be less comparable to Western key changes, and more so to Jins changes in [[Arabic, Turkish, Persian music|Maqam traditions]]. | {{Todo| expand |inline=1}}Due to its plethora of useful structures with so few notes per octave, 15edo compositions can make great use of modulation from one structure to another; if used well, this modulation may be less comparable to Western key changes, and more so to Jins changes in [[Arabic, Turkish, Persian music|Maqam traditions]]. | ||
