Excerpt from The Modern Harmonic Scale as the Basis for the Chromatic Element in Music: A New Phase in the Science of Harmony; A Lecture Delivered at the Toronto Conservatory of Music, Under the Auspices of the Toronto Clef Club, December 1st, 1906
The theory enunciated by Dr. Day has given rise to much controversy in the world of music, though rejected by many of the most eminent theorists as being illogical, it has, nevertheless, been accepted by other very eminent theorists as the correct basis of the chromatic element; consequently, the modern student, whatever his views may be, should at least be familiar with this theory.
The following brief account of Dr. Day is taken from the above-mentioned article in Grove's Dictionary.
