In [[User:FloraC/Analysis on the 13-limit just intonation space|''Analysis on the 13-limit just intonation space'']], Flora Canou explained how 28/27 is suitable for the role of voice leading. To quickly show the background, we notice that [[just intonation]] can be viewed as an expansion of the [[Pythagorean tuning]], where the interval classes are determined by pure fifths, and each has a number of varieties differing from each other by a formal comma. So the Pythagorean scale is thought of as the backbone, inflected by commas to add to its "colors". In 7-limit specifically, the formal commas are the syntonic comma, [[81/80]], and the septimal comma, [[64/63]].

Actually, septimal harmony entail different chord structures from classical ones, and 21/20 has a niche from this perspective. This will be discussed in Chapter VII.
