'''Talman music''' has a long history and has changed greatly over time. Along with [[Verse:Tricin/Bjeheond/Music|Bjeheondian music]], Classical Talman music is the longest tradition of just intonation music in Tricin. Intervals are viewed as rational frequency ratios, which have not only factors of 2, 3 and 5, but also 7, 11, 13 and higher primes which may not be well-represented in Western European music. In contrast, modern Talman music uses various equal temperaments, or a mix of tunings, in addition to just intonation.
'''Talman music''' has a long history and has changed greatly over time. Classical Talman music is the longest continuous tradition of just intonation music in Tricin, and other Northern just intonation traditions, namely [[Verse:Tricin/Bjeheond/Music|Bjeheondian music]] and [[Verse:Tricin/Fyxoom/Music|Fyxoomian music]], are ultimately derived from Talma traditions. Intervals are viewed as rational frequency ratios, which have not only factors of 2, 3 and 5, but also 7, 11, 13 and higher primes which may not be well-represented in Western European music. In contrast, modern Talman music uses various equal temperaments, or a mix of tunings, in addition to just intonation.


Talmans traditionally preferred smaller ensembles; larger orchestras are a Classical and Romantic development.

The Romantic period was the longest period of Talman classical music. 41edo (the smallest edo to represent the 15-odd limit) began to be established for organs.

====Early====
====Early====
Romantic composers emphasized emotion, humor, exuberance and contemplation. Romantic music often had an individualist ethos, which prompted the development of solo techniques. Early Romantic period composers used a free JI approach with microtempering, only sometimes flirting with more tempered scales. However, the use of equal temperaments were spurred on by the theorist Bloisin and the invention of the isomorphic keyboard in the later Romantic period.

Smaller fixed pitch instruments (less than 25 notes/octave) are tuned to specific JI scales; larger fixed-pitch instruments such as organs are usually tuned to 41edo. (41edo is the smallest edo that represents the 15-odd limit.)
