Conart/Music/Difference

So, what is different in these other scales?
Except that the pianos will have different layouts for their keys, there will be certain differences:


 * intervals can sound sweeter or harsher, depending on the characteristics of the scale
 * intervals can be perfectly tuned, or only approximately in tune
 * there can be more or less available chords
 * transposing and modulation can become more or less difficult
 * and of course, different scales lend themselves to different purposes
 * instruments will be slightly different

However, there also is an opposite effect:


 * the available instruments will affect what kind of scales are probable to evolve
 * the kind of music will affect what kind of scales are probable to evolve
