Abstract
Although numerous metaphysicians, philosophers, scientists, poets, artists, and musicians have speculated on the existence of a relationship between color and music for over 2000 years, the establishment of a correlation between color and musical harmony has been elusive. The author describes a framework, Musical Color Hue Harmony (MCHH), that correlates musical and color harmonic consonance and dissonance by applying the physics of aural harmonic resonance and theories of musical harmony to produce sets of “harmonious” color hues based on the mathematically defined frequency relationships between two or more musical pitches. The methodology is applicable to any musical tuning system and any color hue wheel configuration. Color attributes of brightness/luminance and saturation/chroma are presently beyond the scope of the framework.
