That is true not only for music of the 16th and 17th centuries, but also for light music of our times. This book attempts to define the beauty of the quarter-comma meantone temperament by means of scientific arguments, at a level also understandable by non-scientists. A highlight of the book is the description of new experiments and theories concerning the sensory consonance or dissonance of musical two-tones.\u003cbr\u003e This English translation is based on the third edition of the German original.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Reinhart Frosch\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3906769925\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783906769929\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Lang Group Ag, International Academic P\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/03\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 254\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Reinhart Frosch","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48442823442687,"sku":"9783906769929","price":90.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f689e789-d9e5-4d73-b104-acc55d9d5560.jpg?v=1777200014","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/meantone-is-beautiful-reinhart-frosch-9783906769929","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
