It's amazing how many different combinations have been developed by different countries. I have heard for example, that in some places in Africa, they use what we consider quarter steps in some of their scales (rather than our half-steps and whole-steps), causing some of their music to sound slighly out of tune to us. It makes me wonder what other types of scales have been developed and lost or haven't been "discovered" yet. Interesting post.
