Verse:Hmøøh/Talma/Music: Difference between revisions

Imperial Windermere composer Tsăhongtamdi's treatise [[Literature:Elements of Harmony|''Elements of Harmony'']] (CWdm ''Yămyămał clisăybäl'') describes just intonation ratios and the process of playing them on strings. Tsăhongtamdi describes Partchian tonality diamonds and similar scales as an extension of overtone scales over a single fundamental which was the norm in music up to that time, to multiple related fundamentals.  

Tsăhongtamdi's most influential recommendation was against using fixed-pitch instruments; he argued 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 and harpsichords were commonly used in imperial Windermere music.
