In the modern "equal temperament" are the 3rds and 6ths quite detuned. We don't notice that because we are used to it... In this "meantone temperament" in the Age of Enlightenment (17th and 18th centuries) is tuned so that most of the intervals sound as pure as possible. The pure intervals are based on the natural overtones and work positively for our mental health. And also for our cats - they often approach the speaker... About the intonation "Tame the Wolf!": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cOvhC7LsfNU This music is NOT on spotify! Youtube is the only platform that pays fair amount to creators.

Until today, oud is played as the "king of instruments" in Arabic culture. The oud found his way to Europe in medieval times and it became "lute". During the Renaissance the lute was also regarded as the "king of instruments". #oudmusic#lutemusic#japanesemusician
