The hexatonic set 6-z38 came up in relation to some material I was developing out of Yagapriya and at that time I put it aside for later. Well, later has arrived. Let's see what we can make of this awkward pile of semitones.| cochranemusic.com
I recently revisited this post in search of some new harmonic ideas and thought I'd take a closer look at Yagapriya, a rather exotic scale for us Westerners that's very far removed from the diatonic scales we're used to. It also doesn't harmonize easily using my usual tricks so I wanted to treat it more as a unique thing in itself and see where it led me. (As usual I'm using "Yagapriya" as the name for a 12EDO scale; I won't have anything to say about Carnatic music in this post.)| cochranemusic.com
Just a quick follow-up to my previous post about Yagapriya. We start with the 4-8 chord inside Yagapriya, which isn't quartal, and end up developing a little world of quartal-like harmony from it.| cochranemusic.com
