....... because God created it that way.
I will not mention that Pythagoras first described the mathematics of musical harmony, mentioned above, about 540 BC. I AM JUST NOT GOING TO DO IT ! You can't force me!!
Of course it is true that the way frequencies interact existed before being discovered because God created it that way.
No but he created the mathematics that were used by whomever to create the patterns in diatonic ratios.
Most oriental people accept the Infallible Definition of Diatonic Harmony. If anyone has been to Japan, they happen to be very fond of Western Music. There were many Christian Martyrs in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. This is why the cities were pulverised in WWII as part of the anti-christ plot to destroy the Catholic Church. And if there are any pianos or guitars in China I can assure you that they are tuned to the resonance of the Catholic Church. And yes it is inflexible because I don't think anyone wants to listen to noise. Ravi Shankar sucks imo-- I think he was used at Gitmo to torture the poor wretches who ended up there.
