I’ve continued work on the lullaby by Frédéric Chopin, his Berceuse opus 57 published in 1843, when he was 33. This version includes the entire movement, 70 measures long.
The scale I used is mostly diatonic, with a few extra notes to achieve what I think Chopin might have done, had me been as twisted as me. The notes are all derived from the Otonality on C#. My names for the 16 Otonality degrees in 31-limit are, starting at the 1st overtone, 1 through 9, then A, B, C, D, E, F, G. In this piece I did not use the 6th degree, 13:8 or the Gth degree, 31:32. The 14 I did use are shown below.
| Degree | Name | Ratio |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Db | 1:1 |
| 9 | D | 17:16 |
| 2 | Eb | 9:8 |
| A | E | 19:16 |
| 3 | F | 5:4 |
| B | Gb | 21:16 |
| 4 | G+ | 11:8 |
| 5 | Ab | 3:2 |
| D | A | 25:16 |
| E | Bb | 27:16 |
| F | B | 29:16 |
| 7 | Cb | 7:4 |
| 8 | C | 16:15 |
| 1 | Db | 1:1 |
