Editing Golden ratio (section)

===Music===
[[Ernő Lendvai]] analyzes [[Béla Bartók]]'s works as being based on two opposing systems, that of the golden ratio and the [[acoustic scale]],<ref name=lendvai /> though other music scholars reject that analysis.{{sfn|Livio|2002|p=[https://archive.org/details/goldenratiostory00livi/page/190 190]}} French composer [[Erik Satie]] used the golden ratio in several of his pieces, including ''[[Sonneries de la Rose+Croix]]''. The golden ratio is also apparent in the organization of the sections in the music of [[Debussy]]'s ''[[Reflets dans l'eau]] (Reflections in water)'', from ''Images'' (1st series, 1905), in which "the sequence of keys is marked out by the intervals {{math|34,}} {{math|21,}} {{math|13}} and {{math|8,}} and the main climax sits at the phi position".<ref name=Smith />

The musicologist [[Roy Howat]] has observed that the formal boundaries of Debussy's ''[[La Mer (Debussy)|La Mer]]'' correspond exactly to the golden section.<ref name=howat /> Trezise finds the intrinsic evidence "remarkable", but cautions that no written or reported evidence suggests that Debussy consciously sought such proportions.<ref name=trezise />

Music theorists including [[Hans Zender]] and [[Heinz Bohlen]] have experimented with the [[833 cents scale]], a musical scale based on using the golden ratio as its fundamental [[musical interval]]. When measured in [[Cent (music)|cents]], a logarithmic scale for musical intervals, the golden ratio is approximately 833.09 cents.<ref name=833cents />
