| Front | TEMPERAMENT |
| Back | Temperament has to do with the precise tuning of the pitches in a scale, the exact frequency at which each pitch vibrates. The Greeks discovered that a mathematical relationship exists between pitches: If you divide a string on an instrument in two, it produces the same note, but an octave higher (e.g C-C). Dividing it in three gives you the fifth degree of the scale (e.g. C-G), and dividing it in five gives you the third degree of the scale (e.g. C-E). In this way you can eventually determine all of the notes of the scale. |
