| | Tonality - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The traditional form of tonal music begins and ends on the tonic of the piece, and many tonal works move to a closely related key, such as the dominant of the main tonality (for example sonata form). |  | | In the early 20th century the vocabulary of tonal theory is decisively influenced by two theorists: composer Arnold Schoenberg whose work "Harmonielehre" describes in detail chords, chord progressions, vagrant chords, creation of tonal areas, voice leading in terms of harmony. |  | | Theorists such as Edward Lowinsky, Hugo Riemann, and others pushed the date at which modern tonality began, and the cadence began to be seen as the definitive way that a tonality is established in a work of music (Judd, 1998). |

| | Zero News Datapool John Zerzan Tonality and Totality |
 | | Tonality in music may be likened to realism in literature and perspective in painting, but it is more deeply ingrained than either. |  | | In fact, tonal music is full of illusion, such as that of false community, in which the whole is portrayed as being made up of autonomous voices; this impression transcends music to provide a legitimizing reflection ofthe gener al division oflabor in divided society. |  | | It prevailed at the very time when tonality was defjnitively realized; music was henceforth to be written in the idiom of fully established tonality, with" out challenge, for about two and a half centuries. |

| | Aspects of Early Major-Minor Tonality: Chapter 3 |
 | | The conventional view of the period preceding that of the ascendancy of major-minor tonality is that musical composition was governed by the principles of modality. |  | | This hypothesis proposes that, at the earliest stages of incipient major-minor tonality, composers discovered that certain compositional techniques would produce the effect of a triadic harmony underlying the stated surface of the music. |  | | The authentic cadence was an early expression of goal orientation in incipiently tonal music and seems to have arisen rather earlier than many of the other elements of major-minor tonality. |

 | | The site should be of use to any composer who wishes to expand his knowledge of tonal and scalic resources beyond that which is found in most conventional music theory publications; and for the music theorist it should provide a valuable resource of information and ideas which can be used for further exploration. |  | | The Tonal Centre is an interactive site for music composers and theorists which explains and demonstrates some of the key concepts of tonality; including chords, scales, cadences, and modulation. |  | | These alternative tonalities are not generally recognised in conventional music theory, but here's hoping that some of the examples I give can convince you that there is a lot more for the tonal composer to experiment with, and the tonal theorist to analyse, than just the major and the minor scale. |

 | | Rattle focuses on the composers of early 20th-century Vienna: Mahler, described as a spiritual and aesthetic godfather of modernism, and Schoenberg and his pupils, Webern and Alban Berg. |  | | The story Rattle tells, with rare straightforwardness and objectivity, is that of the transformation of tonal language in music of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. |  | | Dissonance abounded in European music from the Middle Ages onward; and Beethoven, Berlioz, Schumann and Liszt, among other 19th-century composers, routinely defied conventions of tonality and musical structure. |

| | Evaluating Prolongation in Extended Tonality |
 | | While a true prolongational perspective cannot be extended to address most post-tonal music, it may be possible to salvage a prolongational approach in a restricted body of post-tonal music that retains some features of tonality, such as harmonic function, parsimonious voice leading, or an underlying diatonic collection. |  | | Because linear analysis depends upon this distinction, any expansion of the prolongational approach for non-tertian music must find alternative means for defining the ways in which transient tones elaborate upon structural chord tones to foster a sense of prolongation. |  | | Provided an alternative means for deciding what chords are structural in non-tertian music, contrapuntal lines passing between any two structural chords can still aid in hearing a passage as a prolongation. |
