Scale of the Day: D Sharp Pythagorean Phrygian 1% wide

DSharpPythagoreanPhrygian1PercentWide

The D Sharp Pythagorean Phrygian 1% wide Scale. Stretching intervals by a small percentage like this takes on an interesting quality with the "unequal" just scales such as the 3-limit (Pythagorean) Phrygian. The stretched minor sixth becomes a startlingly close approximation of the 800-cent equal tempered minor sixth at 800.10-cents.
