Great to think about the beginning of harmonies in vocalizations...and then how other scales have different harmonies, like Asian music and Pentatonic or shape note scales. I prefer ours, and fifths and thirds!Barbara Rogershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08351113054045427775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3743429387466266100.post-38959190358831298572017-04-09T06:45:34.913-07:002017-04-09T06:45:34.913-07:00I always say, "you never know what you'll...I always say, "you never know what you'll find."

How could people not recognize the possibility??? But it wasn't until the 9th century that anything like it began and then the second voicing was only a descant sung above the main voice. Eventually the disharmonic pairing of 4ths & 5ths was added. It took till the 14th-15th centuries before true harmony finally came along when two or more voices could sing different tones together and sound pleasing. That said, I must admit I sometimes like the sound of 4ths and 5ths sung together. :)La Nightingailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04769079547153094005noreply@blogger.com
