Model: Medieval music
Inspiration: gayageum sanjo, Ancient Greek music?
 
The quintessential Pategian musical instruments are (some kind of lyre or fiddle?), and the Pategian drum (''feam Nuth'' in Windermere; ''sảroz'' in Paḷkhan).
 
Paḷkhan music is highly multi-ethnic and uses elements from both native styles and Talman ones. Native Paḷkhan music tends to be richly ornamented, and is based on a heptatonic scale.
 
Some ornaments include:
*grace notes
*rapid trills and turns
*slides
 
Paḷkha has its own offshoot of Windermere music as well. Some styles that fell out of use in Talma are still commonly performed in Pategia, such as the song with intoning voice (''wălam yăthmear''). Pategia is in fact home to the composer Dăraf Ko, a leading composer of ''yăthmear'' songs today, some of which incorporate native Paḷkhan classical styles in addition to Windermere ones.
 
===Thamrona school===
 
Rough timeline:
 
50 years before present: Styles very similar to minimalism and ambient music emerge in Paḷkha. Pieces composed by the Thamrona school around that time can stretch for over 5 hours.
 
30 years BP: People have enough of that style and rebel, creating some of the most wildly dissonant music in Tricin (sometimes using crazy equal temperaments).
 
25 years BP: Minimalism makes a comeback in a slightly more "folksy" form (pieces are shorter etc.) The PSyT (''Prăctheng Sngoal Yătălisrił'' "Experimental Music Society") forms a branch in Paḷkha, led by Schaus-Schaus Flein. More fully acoustic pieces are written in the last 25 years.
 
===Pategian minimalism===
 
Minimalist pieces from the Thamrona school, ironically, have some of the most complex harmonic progressions in Trician music. One famous piece, ???, has over a hundred chord progressions, each modulating up by a microcomma.
 
===Pategian postminimalism===
 
Pategian musical compositions from the last three decades often revolve around polyrhythms.
