Jopah's work laid the foundation for Talman music in the last two centuries. In particular, his work on constant structures inspired Rhooc Askuucis's subsequent work on equal temperaments.
It's remarkable that Jopah composed very little during his lifetime; only one piece of his survives, [???]. However, Jopah's poetry is very popular in modern Talma and has been set to music by quite a few composers; most notably the Clofabian composer Abediterol Benadryl.
Jopah's understanding of tuning was more metaphysical than practical.
