AWESOME..I agree with todd here. I don't know where this should go but it should definitely be kept. I agree with some others' opinions that this does not necessarily benefit the lay reader to a great degree. However, I think that as people do more (...) (22 years ago, 29-Jul-02, to lugnet.space)

Jeff, Sorry to make this my rant space almost but I once again have to set something straight about music theory: Tempo, notes, key signatures...that is not really music theory...it is only part of it. Those qualifications are analogous to the color (...) (22 years ago, 31-Jul-02, to lugnet.space)

Jeff, Wow! You certainly have done your homework. And Schenkerguide is a pretty decent place to start :) I'm glad you understand Schenker a bit now and the way in which I see it relates to Damien's Lego Calc. Schenker is mostly used for analysis and (...) (22 years ago, 1-Aug-02, to lugnet.space)

Jeff, That's odd that you found a lot of mathematical explanations for it... Pitch-class sets are the new mathematical way of understanding atonal music but harmonic analysis (Roman numeral) should be fairly non-mathematical. In any case, I'm happy (...) (22 years ago, 2-Aug-02, to lugnet.space)
