Bach Prelude from Cello Suite in G, BWV 1007. A modulating sequence is a sequence that leads from one tonal center to the next, with each segment technically being in a different key in some ...

  3. Tonality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tonality

    Tonality is the arrangement of pitches and / or chords of a musical work in a hierarchy of perceived relations, stabilities, attractions, and directionality.. In this hierarchy, the single pitch or the root of a triad with the greatest stability in a melody or in its harmony is called the tonic.

  4. Generative theory of tonal music - Wikipedia

    The generative theory of tonal music (GTTM) is a system of music analysis developed by music theorist Fred Lerdahl and linguist Ray Jackendoff. [1] First presented in their 1983 book of the same title, it constitutes a "formal description of the musical intuitions of a listener who is experienced in a musical idiom" [1] with the aim of illuminating the unique human capacity for musical ...

    The ordered sequence C-C ♯-D would be notated 0,1,2 or (0,1,2). Although C is considered zero in this example, this is not always the case. For example, a piece (whether tonal or atonal) with a clear pitch center of F might be most usefully analyzed with F set to zero (in which case {0,1,2} would represent F, F ♯ and G.

  6. Harmonic series (music) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmonic_series_(music)

    The harmonic series (also overtone series) is the sequence of harmonics, musical tones, or pure tones whose frequency is an integer multiple of a fundamental frequency. Pitched musical instruments are often based on an acoustic resonator such as a string or a column of air, which oscillates at numerous modes simultaneously.

  7. Tonal memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tonal_memory

    This test used melodic sequences in a pitch memory test that is formed on the delayed-tone recognition paradigm. [9] The results of the test showed that many factors such as interference tone, degree of tonality, and tonal fitness of comparison tone showed to be a key factor in how listeners performed in the task.

  9. Modulation (music) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modulation_(music)

    Although a sequence does not have to modulate, it is also possible to modulate by way of a sequence. A sequential modulation is also called rosalia. The sequential passage will begin in the home key, and may move either diatonically or chromatically. Harmonic function is generally disregarded in a sequence, or, at least, it is far less ...
