Chapter 14 - The Key of Clear Green: Synesthesia and Music
page 165
Newton thought the 7 colors must match the 7 notes. It must be something special to look at and have experience with.
Here's what I have to say about how it might work, as the "C" in music is the base note, key, scale, etc.:
1. Red - C
2. Orange - D
3. Yellow - E
4. Green - F
5. Blue - G
6. Purple (Indigo) - A
7. Pink (Violet) - B
Also, if you didn't know and to point out, C E G are primary colors plus the base chord (other names apply) of the key of C.
