I need a simple definition of the 9-limit lattice diagram for my tomorrow
exam... I tried... but I can't explain it out clearly.

Can anybody help me... fastly !!!!

Thanks a lot !

EXAM? Are you serious? I never would have believed that this stuff
was actually being taught somewhere . . . I take it you're joking.

9-limit lattice diagrams are lattice diagrams in which each of the 9-
limit consonant interval classes:

3:1 (or 9:3)
5:1
5:3
7:1
7:3
7:5
9:1
9:5
9:7

is represented by a direct connection, and no other intervals are
represented by a direct connection.

9-limit lattice diagrams are not very common. There are two main
types:

Erv Wilson's, in which notes appear at multiple places in the lattice
(e.g., 3*3 is in a different place from 9 even though they're the
same note);

Dave Keenan's, in which some of the connectors "curve" so that they
can go around notes without touching them (e.g. 9:1 goes from 1 to 9
without touching 3) -- see for example
http://www.uq.net.au/~zzdkeena/Music/ErlichPentDec9Lattice.gif

Hope that answers your question -- let me know if you have any others.

In fact I used it in a composition and I'll need to explain it to a jury of
composer that will judge my composition.

Thanks !

I think it should be ok... I fear to explain it in public because it's too
complexe to understand without knowing anything about it at first.

Anyway... (I maybe just too stressed ;o)) ehehe

Good day !

Vincent-Olivier.

Cool! I'd be interested to know how you used it in your composition!

I think Vincent is probably serious. His school just installed
a 96-tET piano, so apparently academia is really taking
microtonality seriously in Montréal!

Vincent, if it helps, here is a lattice diagram of a 9-limit
Tonality Diamond, following my lattice formula, about halfway
down the webpage:

http://www.ixpres.com/interval/monzo/lattices/lat-fren.htm

(And this is in French, which hopefully will make things easier
for you. If my translation sucks, you or any other French
speakers are welcome to make a better one and send it to me.)

Thanks Monz... I already get your lattice on an acetat to show during my
exam and be sure that your name appears over the graph and in my analyse
text :o))

Thanks.

By the way, of course microtonality is healthy in Montr�al... our two
teachers (very good, by the way) use microtonality since years ! So do I
:o))
