All the others can be proved in the same way, even Nos. 7, n and 13, which are not quite in tune with Nature's chord. (Don't call it Nature's scale ; because it is a chord. } 1 Except perhaps a very few notes on the flute and on specially prepared metal bars. 101 102 SCRIABIN But this is not the way the harmony of Palestrina, Purcell, Handel, Bach, and Beethoven was derived. Although many theorists Rameau, Day, Hiles, Macfarren, and even Prout have from time to time endeavoured to force the the...ory of harmony on to these lines, it should be remembered that theorists should follow the artists and not precede them ; and even down to the present day, musical composers have shown themselves singularly ignor- ant of the laws of Acoustics. 1 Our harmony grew up on far different lines in tentative, aesthetic, and empirical ways. And so too did all our scales. In an illuminating talk I had once with my friend, Dr. Walford Da vies, he gave a clever exposition of the way in which he considered our harmony had evolved.
