'''Netagin classical music''' is based on 19 equal divisions of the octave (19edo). The tuning was realized by tuning a chain of 19 pure 6/5 minor thirds, which approximates the tuning to less than 3 [[w:cent (music)|cents]] of error. Though 19edo is a meantone tuning like 12edo and diatonic music is not uncommon in Netagin culture, liturgical and folk music is usually based on the nine-note MOS scale (called godzilla[9] in regular temperament theory) which is an extension of the familiar pentatonic scale.

A ''haňier'' (literally 'stepping') consists of a nine-note scale plus which subsets to emphasize, either a set of two ''buri'' (pentachords or hexachords) or a ''pezum'', a pentatonic subset where 1\24 is not used as a step. Different styles encourage different subset use. | A ''haňier'' (literally 'stepping') consists of a nine-note scale plus which subsets to emphasize, either a set of two ''buri'' (pentachords or hexachords) or a ''pezum'', a pentatonic subset where 1\24 is not used as a step.
