About :

Western music consists of twelve notes grouped into seven white and five black notes according to the piano keyboard. Come on, seven natural notes and five accidentals. Why this such a random arrangement? Mathematics is the protagonist of a story of passion and debauchery between quotient sets and frequencies that please the ear. * * * Additional information and bibliography: https://lemnismath.org/2018/09/por-qu... Instagram: / lemnismath Twitter: / lemnismath * * * Since you have continued reading up to here, one more thing. Note that the equal temperament arrangement is a kidney stone of sound theory. At first we were looking for sounds that fit together because they followed simple relationships (1/2 or 2/3). If now the relationships depend on the twelfth root of two (an openly irrational number) we will never be able to express them as a fraction. That is to say, ALL the sounds of the chromatic scale are dissonant with each other. Let's take a breath of fresh air with the theory. Luckily, the human ear is not so picky and has a hard time distinguishing these small differences in the frequency of sounds. That's why the scale still sounds in tune to us, even though mathematically it is not. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Things I've used: Whoosh sound: https://freesound.org/people/ztrees1/...
