Often microtonal songs also refers to music which uses intervals not discovered in the
Western program of twelve equal intervals to the octave. The term implies tunes made up of
very little intervals but can incorporate any tuning that differs from the western 12 tone equal
temperament. By this definition then any scale in any suggest-tone tuning the conventional

African tunes which use seven tones in every single (approximate) octave can be deemed

of Microtonal Music in the WestJulian Carrillo (1875-1965) who identified the sixteenths of
tone, while experimenting with his violin. In other phrases, sixteen plainly various appears
between the pitches of G and A emitted by the fourth violin string. He named his discovery
Sonido 13 (the thirteenth audio) and wrote on songs principle and the physics of music. He
invented a basic numerical musical notation that can symbolize scales based mostly on any
division of the octave, like thirds, fourths, quarters, fifths, sixths, sevenths, and so on (even if
Carrillo wrote, most of the time, for quarters, eights, and sixteenths combined, the notation is
in a position to symbolize any possible subdivision). He invented new musical devices, and
adapted others to produce microintervals. He composed a large quantity of microtonal tunes
and recorded about 30 of his compositions.Ivan Wyschnegradsky, used 3rd tones, quarter
tones, sixth tones and twelfth tones, non octaving scales, as well as the term ultra-chromatic,
for micro-intervals, and infra-chromatic, for macro-intervals.Ivor Darreg, who proposed the
term xenharmonic (from the Greek xeno, foreign, and Greek harmonic, hospitable) for any
scale other than 12-tone equivalent tempered scale. He also built the very first completely
retunable electronic synthesizer capable of any division of the octave, just or equal or non-

on with an comprehensive use of microtonal harmony. The principal composers from this
time period are Hugues Dufourt, Grard Grisey, Tristan Murail, Michael Levinas, and

instrument builders are also turning into more and more fascinated in making new devices
and altering proven devices to gain entry to even even more subdivisions of the octave.
