Neutrominant: Difference between revisions

'''Neutrominant''' (formerly maqamic) is a linear mimicry of [[Arabic, Turkish, Persian|maqam music]] within the [[Regular temperament|regular mapping paradigm]], much as [[Pelogic family|pelogic]] is a linear mimicry of the gamelan pelog scale. It is the temperament that you get if you take, at face value, the simplest harmonic mapping consistent with the scalar structure of the maqamat. It deliberately ignores the issue of whether or not those dyads are resolved by the auditory system as such when played melodically (as maqam music is generally a melodic art form), intending instead to serve as a vehicle for the adventurous microtonalist who wants to explore a harmonic context for maqam music.
