Balzano makes a big deal out of how using 12-et in connection with
scale theory ideas such as strict propriety = coherence gives the
pentatonic and diatonic scales, but I think 19 does a much better job.
For one thing, there aren't any coherent 7-note scales in 12-et, so
his whole analysis falls apart, due to the "unique badness" property
of 12-et.
Using 19, we get the major diatonic scale, the "melodic minor" scale,
the "harmonic minor" scale, the inverse harmonic minor = "harmonic
major scale, a 3/19 MOS, and two funny scales. Hence, the whole of
diatonic scale theory is practically falling in our lap here, which it
most certainly does not do in 12-et. 19 would appear to be a much
better starting point for a lot of common practice scale stuff than 12.
I think I'll start an archive of these things, but here they are:
