Whilst not widely extended, non-octave-repeating scales are present in a variety of musical settings, yet have received scarce attention in the existing literature. This paper provides a brief general historical contextualization before focusing on a specific group of two-octave scales based on properties in common with the most widely used scales in Western music. After characterizing them in mathematical terms, an exhaustive list of such scales is provided, being the first exhaustive list of non-octave-repeating scales of any given characteristics. A scale endowed with structural properties attributed to the diatonic collection in the field of diatonic theory – such as well-formed, Myhill property, maximally even or diatonic – is singled out for the first time in this paper.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Mathematics and Music aims to advance the use of mathematical modelling and computation in music theory. The Journal focuses on mathematical approaches to musical structures and processes, including mathematical investigations into music-theoretic or compositional issues as well as mathematically motivated analyses of musical works or performances. In consideration of the deep unsolved ontological and epistemological questions concerning knowledge about music, the Journal is open to a broad array of methodologies and topics, particularly those outside of established research fields such as acoustics, sound engineering, auditory perception, linguistics etc.
