Rafael Cubarsi

Chord Transformations in Higher-Dimensional Networks (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Proposes an in-depth formal framework for generalized Tonnetze, takes an algebraic approach, studies systems of k-chords in n-TET scales derived from a given k-mode through mode permutations and chord root translations, by combining key ideas of the neo-Riemannian Tonnetz theories with serial approaches to chordal structures.
