	Traditional Wiobian music places much emphasis on melody, often having two melodic voices in counterpoint for high-class music, though more modern music often calls for more dense orchestration.

However also valued are harmonic instruments (such as stringed instruments e.g. the plucked or bowed zither-like ~~''Tünd'', the strummed~~ and ~~fretted ''Þaus-Bung''~~, and ~~the bowed ''Nisch&Ker''; as well as fixed-pitch wind instruments; and last but not least the human voice), for their ability to imitate the human voice and to emphasize canonically harmonic intervals.~~

===Origins and development===
Long story short:

The Wiobian tuning system has its origins in the quasi-equal pentatonic scale, found in our world in e.g. [[w:gamelan|gamelan]] music - this system is described in Classical Wiobian records:

C D F G A C

Then, Wiobian musicians in the "Wiobian Renaissance" started experimenting with more "interesting" sounds, such as major thirds (5/4, ~400¢), and a "major seventh" to serve as a leading tone:

C D F G A C
E\| B\|

Coincidentally, the major third was a leading tone to F and the major seventh was a major third to G! Exploiting this fact, leading tones were successively added under each note of the equal pentatonic scale, eventually resulting in:

C D F G A C
D\| E\| G\| A\| B\|

Later, more dense orchestration increased the demand for chromatic movements. Thus eventually the full 15-tone gamut was complete:

C/| D/| F/| G/| A/|
C D F G A C
D\| E\| G\| A\| B\|
