Nikriz (Turkish Makam)
Nikriz is the implementation of the Nikriz scale in Turkish makam music. It is in 53 Tone Equal Temperament. Nikriz in 53-TET Comparison with Western scales Since the makam is based on 53-TET, it is impossible to directly tie it to 12-TET Western scales. However, using the 48-TET An equal temperament is a musical temperament or tuning system that approximates just intervals by dividing an octave (or other interval) into steps such that the ratio of the frequencies of any adjacent pair of notes is the same. This system y ... model, while worse than many other models in approximation, allows for such comparisons. This is because 48 is divisible by 12.

Turkish Makam Music
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 Pala ...

53 Equal Temperament
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 musi ...

Nikriz Pitch Class Set
In Turkish classical music, the Nikriz pitch class set is a set of scales that are named after the Nikriz makam. For Nikriz, there is only the pentachord, as the 4th is raised. The Nikriz pentachord is the same as putting the 53-TET equivalent of a whole step In Western music theory, a major second (sometimes also called whole tone or a whole step) is a second spanning two semitones (). A second is a musical interval encompassing two adjacent staff positions (see Interval number for more deta ... in the beginning of the Hicaz tetrachord.

12 Equal Temperament
12 equal temperament (12-ET) is the musical system that divides the octave into 12 parts, all of which are Equal temperament, equally tempered (equally spaced) on a logarithmic scale, with a ratio equal to the Twelfth root of two, 12th root of 2 (\sqrt[12] ≈ 1.05946). That resulting smallest interval, the width of an octave, is called a semitone or half step. Twelve-tone equal temperament is the most widespread system in music today. It has been the predominant tuning system of Western music, starting with classical music, since the 18th century, and Europe almost exclusively used approximations of it for millennia before that. It has also been used in other cultures. In modern times, 12-ET is usually tuned relative to a standard pitch of 440 Hz, called A440 (pitch standard), A440, meaning one note, A (musical note), A4 (the A in the 4th octave of a typical 88-key piano), is tuned to 440 hertz and all other notes are defined as some multiple of semitones apart from it, ei ...

Classical Music
Classical music generally refers to the art music of the Western world, considered to be #Relationship to other music traditions, distinct from Western folk music or popular music traditions. It is sometimes distinguished as Western classical music, as the term "classical music" can also be applied to List of classical and art music traditions, non-Western art musics. Classical music is often characterized by formality and complexity in its musical form and Harmony, harmonic organization, particularly with the use of polyphony. Since at least the ninth century, it has been primarily a written tradition, spawning a sophisticated music notation, notational system, as well as accompanying literature in music analysis, analytical, music criticism, critical, Music history, historiographical, musicology, musicological and Philosophy of music, philosophical practices. A foundational component of Western culture, classical music is frequently seen from the perspective of individual or com ...

Scale (music)
In music theory, a scale is "any consecutive series of notes that form a progression between one note and its octave", typically by order of pitch or fundamental frequency. The word "scale" originates from the Latin ''scala'', which literally means "ladder". Therefore, any scale is distinguishable by its "step-pattern", or how its intervals interact with each other. Often, especially in the context of the common practice period, most or all of the melody and harmony of a musical work is built using the notes of a single scale, which can be conveniently represented on a staff with a standard key signature. Due to the principle of octave equivalence, scales are generally considered to span a single octave, with higher or lower octaves simply repeating the pattern. A musical scale represents a division of the octave space into a certain number of scale steps, a scale step being the recognizable distance (or interval) between two successive notes of the scale. However, ...

48-TET
An equal temperament is a musical temperament or tuning system that approximates just intervals by dividing an octave (or other interval) into steps such that the ratio of the frequencies of any adjacent pair of notes is the same. This system yields pitch steps perceived as equal in size, due to the logarithmic changes in pitch frequency. In classical music and Western music in general, the most common tuning system since the 18th century has been 12 equal temperament (also known as ''12 tone equal temperament'', ' or ', informally abbreviated as ''12 equal''), which divides the octave into 12 parts, all of which are equal on a logarithmic scale, with a ratio equal to the 12th root of 2, (\sqrt 2/math> ≈ 1.05946). That resulting smallest interval, the width of an octave, is called a semitone or half step. In Western countries the term ''equal temperament'', without qualification, generally means '. In modern times, is usually tuned relative to a standa ...

Ukrainian Dorian Scale
In music, the Ukrainian Dorian scale (or the Dorian ♯4 scale) is a modified minor scale with raised 4th and 6th, and lowered 7th degree (music), degrees, often with a variable 4th degree. It has traditionally been common in the music of Eastern Europe, Southeast Europe, and the Mediterranean Basin, Mediterranean including Jewish, Greek, Ukrainian, and Romanian music. Because of its widespread use, this scale has been known by a variety of names including Altered Dorian, Hutsul mode and Mi Shebeirach. It is also closely related to the Nikriz pitch class set (Turkish makam theory), Nikriz pentachord found in Turkish makam, Turkish or Arabic maqam systems. It is one of the two harmonic Dorian mode, Dorian scales, the other is the Dorian ♭5 scale. Terminology Although this scale has been used in the music of Southeastern Europe and Western Asia for centuries, our terms for it only date to the twentieth century. The term Ukrainian Dorian mode, Dorian () was coined by the pionee ...
