Synopsis
Discover how music builds tones over time to reveal the hidden logic of melody and harmony.
This edition delves into the successive aspect of tonality, expanding the study from static chords to the unfolding relationship of tones as they occur in sequence. It explains how pitch space can be understood as a reactive system, with concepts like phonality, the tonal matrix, and scale forms shaping what we hear in music practice.
- Grasp the idea of scale, intervals, and the role of phase in progression
- Explore the distinction between chromes, fluents, and liminants in scales
- See how the tonal matrix and secondary axes guide harmony and melody
- Learn how extension, development, and passages affect musical structure
Ideal for readers curious about the deeper theory behind melody, rhythm, and tuning, and for musicians seeking a framework for thinking about time-based tonal relationships.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand.
