  3. Microtonality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microtonality

    Some scholars have ascribed Debussy's subsequent innovative use of the whole-tone (six equal pitches per octave) tuning in such compositions as the Fantaisie for piano and orchestra and the Toccata from the suite Pour le piano to his exposure to the Balinese gamelan at the Paris exposition, [87] and have asserted his rebellion at this time ...

  4. Quarter tone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quarter_tone

    For example, some 17th- and 18th-century theorists used the term to describe the distance between a sharp and enharmonically distinct flat in mean-tone temperaments (e.g., D ♯ –E ♭). [2] In the quarter-tone scale, also called 24-tone equal temperament (24-TET), the quarter tone is 50 cents , or a frequency ratio of 24 √ 2 or ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_musical_symbols

    Notes that are shown as sharp or flat in a key signature will be played that way in every octave—e.g., a key signature with a B ♭ indicates that every B is played as a B ♭. A key signature indicates the prevailing key of the music and eliminates the need to use accidentals for the notes that are always flat or sharp in that key. A key ...

    In environments where the or 𝄳 symbol is not supported, or in specific text notation, a half flat is sometimes written as d, etc. Likewise, a flat and a half can also be written as d ♭, db, etc. [citation needed] To allow extended just intonation, composer Ben Johnston uses a flat as an accidental to indicate a note is lowered 70.6 cents.

  7. Key signature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Key_signature

    Claude Debussy's Suite bergamasque does this: in the third movement "Clair de lune" the key shifts from D-flat major to D-flat minor (eight flats) for a few measures but the passage is notated in C-sharp minor (four sharps); the same happens in the final movement, "Passepied", in which a G-sharp major section is written as A-flat major.

  8. Enharmonic scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enharmonic_scale

    The only difficulty is retuning the strings (on an acoustic piano or harpsichord) or convincing an electronic sound module (for a modern electronic keyboard) to produce the bizarre pitches required for enharmonic scale D, E, A, and B notes; the fixed notes (C, F, G, and C′) may also need comparatively slight adjustments, but in enharmonic ...
