+====Periodization====
-*Older music: Partchian 11- 13- limit
+Here follows a crude periodization of Talman classical music:
-*Free JI like Johnston's string quartets
-*Dekanies, eikosanies and other scales that maximize the number of consonant chords per note
-*Constant structures that contain desirable scales (like Erv Wilson)
-*"Commas" (small intervals) are not necessarily something to be avoided, but to be judiciously worked with.
-*Historically well-temperaments were also used.
-Popular music prefers "simpler" just scales:
+*Throat-singing, natural horns, monochords lead to knowledge of higher harmonics; mainly overtone scales; mainly monophonic
-*6:7:8:9:10:11:12
+*Tsăhong Tamdi's treatise [[Literature:Elements of Harmony|''Elements of Harmony'']] is published ~> Partchian tonality diamonds;
-*5-/7-odd limit diamonds
+*Johnstonian free JI
-*Small CS's
+*(n,k)-anies, Euler-Fokker and other CPS's
+*constant structures; good equal temperaments (19-EDO, 22-EDO, 27-EDO, 31-EDO)
+**Askuucis came up with the idea of EDOs; however, EDOs didn't really take off until the isomorphic keyboard was invented.
