" The second partial intersection of the 5ths would fall in to the same = region on the keyboard as the first partial intersection of the other = main intervals ; 3rds, 4ths and 6ths. In a C to C octave the lower 5th interval C to G will be the same beat = rate as the higher 4th interval G to C.

However you will have to = sensitize your hearing to discern that point. AF ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
