I strongly agree with the distinction made between the "fifth" and the triple degree. Most of the discussions I see about intonation on the web frustrate me since confusing presuppositions are treated in too cavalier a fashion.
I am really glad I stumbled upon this video. I had never seen any of your videos so I did not know what to expect. I was quickly interested with the idea of thinking about the actual sound waves, and how the ratios correlate with the rhythm as well as harmony. Within the same week I have been studying 3-phase electrical systems, which are called "3-phase" because the actual waves, represented as sine waves, are 120 degrees out of phase of one another. It was interesting to bring those ideas of sine waves and phase differences into music with the harmonic series. Then when you starting tying it into North Indian Classical theories I was pleasantly surprised. This was very thought provoking to say the least. I do not remember exactly how I found your video but I think it was related through listening to Ivan Wyschnegradsky and also searching for music made with just intonation. I have seen multiple of your videos now and am looking forward to watching more. I really enjoyed listening to the different temperament versions of Erik Satie's Gnossienne No. 1.
@@SocraticSwansongs Agreed! I am excited to figure out how to experiment with the different temperaments/microtones. Are there any programs that you recommend for this?
Brahms' Exercises for the Piano begin with polyrhythms including 4 against 5. When I first encountered this, I gave up on the entire book. I later learned that the exercises are not presented in the order of difficulty. So I worked on those exercises that were not so intimidating. With some of the exercises including the first, Brahms does not provide a way to go about meeting the challenge of the exercise at hand.
Thank you for the vid, if it doesn't bother I would really like to ask for an additional one regarding the chord practice of the overtone series, I'm having trouble with the fingering and memorization.
Gracias por este gran video!
Great explanations and examples. Love the raga towards the end too Jonathan.

So glad you are enjoying them and making so many connections! So much potential for making new sounds!

just bought the book!

We would love to make that! hopefully we have time to at some point
App name for drone please. Greetings

@@SocraticSwansongs thank you, not a mac user, but is this in just intonation?
@@Anorectic.Bumblebee It is! Does the app only work on mac?
