musical pitch space

Musical pitch space is a way to visualize and understand the relationships between different pitches or notes. Think of pitches arranged along a continuous, multidimensional space where distance reflects how similar or different they sound. For example, notes close together sound similar (like C and C#), while those farther apart (like C and G) sound more distinct. This concept helps us understand musical scales, chords, and harmonies by mapping how pitches relate in terms of frequency and perception, providing a framework to analyze and organize musical sounds systematically.
