Turkish Makam
The Turkish makam ( Turkish: ''makam'' pl. ''makamlar''; from the Arabic word ''maqām'' ) is a system of melody types used in Turkish classical music and Turkish folk music. It provides a complex set of rules for composing and performance. Each makam specifies a unique intervalic structure (''cinsler'' meaning genera) and melodic development (''seyir''). Whether a fixed composition ('' beste'', '' şarkı'', '' peşrev'', '' âyin'', etc.) or a spontaneous composition ('' gazel'', '' taksim'', recitation of '' Kuran-ı Kerim'', '' Mevlid'', etc.), all attempt to follow the melody type. The rhythmic counterpart of makam in Turkish music is usul. Geographic and cultural relations The Turkish makam system has some corresponding relationships to maqams in Arabic music and '' echos'' in Byzantine music. Some theories suggest the origin of the makam to be the city of Mosul in Iraq. "Mula Othman Al-Musili," in reference to his city of origin, is said to have served in the Ottoman ...

Melody Type
Melody type or type-melody is a set of melody, melodic formulas, figure (music), figures, and melodic pattern, patterns. Term and typical meanings "Melody type" is a fundamental notion for understanding a nature of Western and non-Western musical Mode (music), modes, according to Harold Powers, Harold Powers' seminal article "Mode" in the first edition of the ''New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians'' . Melody types are used in the musical composition, composition of an enormous variety of music, especially music of Asia, non-Western and early music, early Western music. Such music is generally composed by a process of centonization, either freely (i.e. improvised) or in a fixed pattern. "Melody type" as used by the ethnomusicologist Mark Slobin, Mark is defined as a "group of melodies that are related, in that they all contain similar modal procedures and characteristic rhythmic and melodic contours or patterns". Most cultures which compose music in this way organize ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Holdrian Comma
In music, 53 equal temperament, called 53 TET, 53 EDO, or 53 ET, is the tempered scale derived by dividing the octave into 53 equal steps (equal frequency ratios) (). Each step represents a frequency ratio of or 22.6415 cents (), an interval sometimes called the Holdrian comma. 53 TET is a tuning of equal temperament in which the tempered perfect fifth is 701.89 cents wide, as shown in Figure 1, and sequential pitches are separated by 22.642 cents. The 53-TET tuning equates to the unison, or ''tempers out'', the intervals known as the schisma, and known as the kleisma. These are both 5 limit intervals, involving only the primes 2, 3, and 5 in their factorization, and the fact that 53 TET tempers out both characterizes it completely as a 5 limit temperament: It is the only regular temperament tempering out both of these intervals, or commas, a fact which seems to have first been recognized by Japanese music t ...
