Original Wikitext content:
In 1/3-comma [[meantone]] temperament, each perfect fifth is tempered by a third of a [[Syntonic Comma|syntonic comma]] from its just value of [[3_2|3/2]]. This results in minor thirds being exactly [[6_5|6/5]] (and major sixths being exactly [[5_3|5/3]]). In other words, 1/3-comma meantone is the specific tuning of meantone temperament with an [[Fractional monzos|eigenmonzo]] of 6/5. 1/3-comma meantone is practically identical to the closed system of [[19edo]] (although technically there is a slight difference). =External links= [[http://www.lehrklaenge.de/html/mitteltonige_stimmung_iii.html|Die mitteltönige Stimmung mit reinen kleinen Terzen]] (explanation of 1/3 comma meantone, in german)
