===Early Talman music===
The earliest Talman musical tradition was based on throat-singing. Primes higher than 5 may have come from an early tradition of throat singing where having a deep voice and the ability to throat-sing higher harmonics (11-14) clearly was seen as a mark of masculinity.

Composer Tsăhong Tamdi's treatise [[Literature:Elements of Harmony|''Elements of Harmony'']], which describes Partchian tonality diamonds, came to codify Windermere imperial courtly music. In particular, he recommended against using fixed-pitch instruments, arguing that they were expressively limited. This recommendation was lasting in influence - most instruments used in traditional Talman music are flexible-pitch instruments. Since Mărotłism banned the killing of mammals but not of fish, fish glue and hoof glue could be used for repairs instead of hide glue. Hence viola organistas could still be commonly used in imperial Windermere music.

During the later Gweats era, there was a musical movement called ''săφnga cămχüüm'' ('subtly flowing art'), which explored minimalism and complex expressive beating and dissonance, reminiscent of La Monte Young.
