Microtonality is rarely found in most western music, even in more progressive styles like jazz, prog rock and classical. However, if you look in the right places, you can find a range of microtonal moments in a whole range of songs.

❗CORRECTION: at 0:53 the frequency for C halfsharp should be 269.29hz, not 269.4hz. I used the wrong sum to work it out, sorry! The pitch I play you though is actually sounding at 269.29hz so you are hearing a true C halfsharp.
