Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book challenges the rigid rules of traditional music theory and offers a fresh perspective on harmony. It delves into the history of how music theory has often lagged behind the daring innovations of composers, arguing that theory should follow practice rather than restrict it. The author champions the use of dissonance, exploring how composers like Purcell, Wagner, Strauss, and Debussy have employed it to create compelling and innovative sounds. The book particularly focuses on the "tonal scale," a system of whole tones that has long been used implicitly by composers but has never been formally recognized by theorists. The author argues that this scale offers a greater freedom of expression and movement than traditional diatonic scales. He provides detailed examples from classic and contemporary works to illustrate how the tonal scale and its chords have been used and how they contribute to a more fluid and expressive approach to harmony. This book provides a powerful framework for understanding the evolution of harmony and offers a valuable resource for anyone interested in exploring the possibilities of music beyond traditional boundaries.
