Andrew Gawel. ---------------------------------- I am very glad that letter was understood. In result of it Paul E. played litlle progression very nice: > Here is a little progression using Tomasz's letter names, M indicates a> 4:5:6:7 chord (4 is the root), and m indicates a 1/7:1/6:1/5:1/4 chord (1/6 > is the root) > CM Om TM Em QM Vm GM CM > 00-02-04-04-02-04-06-00 > 12-14-12-12-14-16-14-12 > 21-21-19-21-23-23-21-21 > 29-29-31-33-31-31-33-29 Paul exploid two importance sorts of chords and named then M and m. I propose to give the names 12 basic sorts of chords: C or CEGO = 0+12+9+8 c or CRenGOen = 0+9+12+7 Cd or CYGOen = 0+11+10+7 Cm or CRGO = 0+10+11+8 C* or CYGenOen = 0+11+9+8 c* or CRenGenOen = 0+9+11=8 Ct or CETO = 0+12+7+10 ct or CRenTOen = 0+9+10+9 Ctd or CYTOen = 0+11+8+9 Ctm or CRTO = 0+10+9+10 C” or CLGO = 0+14+7+8 c” or CLenGOen = 0+13+8+7. John asked: > Has Tomasz composed any music in this system? Why did he decide on the cycle of >1152/octave? The cycle of 1152/octave give possibility optaining intervals up to h26.These intervals is neccessary to making interesingsound chains. Example: h6+h7+...+h26 = 9/8 = h2. The cycle of 768/octave give possibility optaing intervals up to h14. I spend not many effort for composition but createt many sounds examples. NPD 36 means Natural Beauty Sound.
