Ancient Naquian music uses a division of the perfect fifth into 4 or 8 equal parts. (The 8 equal parts tuning is very close to the 88 cents equal tuning.) Skellan composer [[Verse:Tricin/Rewhd Sgutsis|Rewhd Sgutsis]] noted that these scales fit nicely into a framework of 41 equal parts to the octave. | |||
Scales in steps of the 8 equal division of the fifth scale: | |||
*2 2 2 2 - 4edf | |||
*2 2 3 1 | |||
*3 1 3 1 | |||
Native sources describe the following system of naming intervals in this scale. | |||
*"Unison" | |||
*Minor second = 88 cents | |||
*Neutral second = 176 cents | |||
*Major second = Minor third = 264 cents | |||
*Neutral third = 352 cents | |||
*Major third = Minor fourth = 440 cents | |||
*Neutral fourth = 528 cents | |||
*Major fourth = 616 cents | |||
*Perfect fifth ]= 704 cents | |||
*Minor sixth = 792 cents | |||
*Neutral sixth = 880 cents | |||
*Major sixth = Minor seventh = 968 cents | |||
*Neutral seventh = 1056 cents | |||
*Major seventh = 1144 cents | |||
