Elements of Harmony (Windermere: ___) is a collection of Windermere-language textbooks by physicist, mathematician and composer Tsăhong-Tamdi covering elementary number theory, acoustics, and just intonation music theory.
Contents
- Book 1 discusses mathematical results:
- Basically the number theory results in Euclid's Elements plus...
- Continued fractions
- Book 2 discusses basic acoustics (don't mention frequencies)
- monochord; building it
- Mersenne's Laws?
- harmonic series
- intervals as rational string length ratios (given equal thickness and tension); these can be written as tuples/monzos by unique factorization
- Book 3 discusses harmonic properties of various scales.
- odd- and prime-limit
- chord voicings
- otonal and utonal chords
- tonality diamond
