Bjeheondian music often appears "microtonal" or "xenharmonic" from our modern Western perspective, though pentatonic-like scales can be used. In modern times it is usually notated based on a diatonic-based notation with accidentals for non-fifth-based notes. However, real-world intonational practices are not fixed to a particular tuning and use traditional microtonal inflections or fine-tuned intervals, and they differ by region and context. Both court and folk music use melodies based on either scales similar to our pentatonic scale, diatonic-like scales, or the semiquartal (5L 4s MOS) scale, the nine-note scale LLSLSLSLS which is an extension of the familiar pentatonic scale; restriction of melodies to the pentatonic scale shows up sometimes. Diatonic-like melodic shapes sometimes arise as a consequence of altering the semiquartal scale. | Bjeheondian music often appears "microtonal" or "xenharmonic" from our modern Western perspective, though pentatonic-like scales can be used.

A ''hanier'' /hɐ'nɪɾ/ (literally 'stepping'; Wdm. ''hănier'') consists of a set of nine movable pitches plus a choice of which subset to emphasize, either a set of two ''pezům'' /pɛ'zuəm/ (pentachords, lit. 'set of five'; Nurian ''seałŧaļ'', Wdm. ''păsuam'') or a framework based on a ''buri'' /by'ɾi/ (lit. 'sprint'; Wdm. ''büri''), a pentatonic subset where | A ''hanier'' /hɐ'nɪɾ/ (literally 'stepping'; Wdm.

Different styles encourage different subset use. | ||
Some important modern ''hanier'' artists include composers Baqůr Dyhieć and Qypaś Nabak and singer Stow fa Fitsmil. Some modern composers have introduced hanier counterpoint. | Some important modern ''hanier'' artists include composers Baqůr Dyhieć and Qypaś Nabak and singer Stow fa Fitsmil.
