*Just major third on C = E. Just: 5:4 = 386.31 cents. Limit: 5-limit. MIDI pitch bend: 79,59 A M3 with pitch bend on 79,59 for about 386.31 cents rather than 400.
In the range of three octaves, sung by me in 13 tracks. Not completely in tune. The first one is unedited sound. The second is transposed an octave lower. The third is transposed two octaves lower. In the fourth all the latter are sounded together (39 voices). The transposing makes a peculiar effect to the voice specially in the second (12 semitone) transposition.
Used as transition between scenes for a play. The chord is unusual but essentially a major chord. Does not adhere to equal temperament so it sounds odd to the typical musical ear.
