Synopsis
Excerpt from The Theory and Practice of Tone-Relations: A Condensed Course of Harmony Conducted Upon a Contrapuntal Basis
IT has been a universal custom to regard Counterpoint and Harmony as two distinct branches of the study of tone-relation and tone-combination. This view is of historic origin and has been well grounded in the practices of composition during past history. But the conception Of the art of music has undergone radical changes in our century, and these have brought new views and new needs into the science of musical texture.

The Theory and Practice of Tone-Relations (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a fresh perspective on the study of music theory, challenging the traditional separation of counterpoint and harmony. It advocates for a unified approach, emphasizing the interconnectedness of melody and chords. Historically, counterpoint and harmony were treated as distinct disciplines, but this book argues that this division is outdated and hinders a comprehensive understanding of musical composition. The author proposes "Contrapuntal Harmony" as a method that integrates melodic principles into harmonic studies from the very beginning. This book delves into the fundamental elements of music theory, including tone, key, intervals, and chord construction. It explores the concepts of consonance and dissonance, guiding readers through the building blocks of chords and their relationships within a key. The author emphasizes the significance of rhythm and melody, providing clear rules and practical examples for creating effective musical phrases. By merging the principles of counterpoint and harmony, this book empowers aspiring musicians to develop a deeper understanding of musical structure and composition. It paves the way for a more holistic approach to music theory, where melody and harmony intertwine to create richer and more expressive musical experiences. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780282776763_0
