But when we look at the overtone series—the natural harmonic structure inside every sound—we discover a surprising perspective: relationships corresponding to the major second appear earlier than those connected to the minor third. This episode explores how our perception of consonance and dissonance is shaped not only by acoustics, but also by musical habits and cultural listening patterns. By exploring harmony through the overtone series, composers can begin hearing intervals in a more flexible and creative way. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-music-interval-theory-podcast-4670368/episodes/hearing-intervals-differently/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-music-interval-theory-podcast-4670368/hearing-intervals-differently.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
