Music Theory & Ear Training: Relative Pitch and Perfect Pitch Free Software
the best thing i learned today – The Mathematics in Music
I went to a very interesting performance today: “The Mathematics in Music: a concert-conversation with Elaine Chew”, in Killian Hall at MIT. Elaine is visiting Harvard for the year from USC, where she is a professor. She has an amazingly broad background that is super-pleasing… having studied math, computer science, music performance, and operations research. Elaine performed four piano pieces, three of which were composed just for her, that use playful tricks in math as compositional inspiration. Composing with a meter determined by the numbers in a row (or column) of a completed Sudoku puzzle. Elaine and her colleague, Alexandre Francois, developed a way of visualizing tonality called MuSA.RT, which accompanied her during two of the pieces. No Comments Be the first to comment!

Music theory and art aesthetics. Can melody be rated?
I'm not exactly sure of the general consensus, but I have often heard the opinion that with music for example: "There can be no final, or definitive judgement" or that "One person's subjective opinion is just as valid as another - and that it's only a matter of personal preference". In other words, many believe that music is only good because our minds are individually (and in different ways) - 'programmed' or 'geared' (for whatever reasons) to enjoy it from their perspective. This is called the "Subjective or Relative Aesthetics View" Well, no doubt people's 'taste' is biased (to varying degrees) due to a number of reasons:- what they're 'used to' hearing, 'cultural trend', simply their quality of taste in music, or even 'nostalgia' (though obviously a tune could still be nostalgic to someone and good). For the sake of argument, I'm going to focus on music with a mini-section on what makes the best graphics/pictures near the end of this article. Maybe. Take chess. Difficult question.

Grammatika by Troy A Peterson
We're making an app, 3 videos and a poster that will help you turn your guitar, bass, piano or ukelele into a musical light saber by connecting it to the Force. Well, the Circle of Fifths and Nashville #'s. You'll still need a music teacher to become a Jedi but the app, vids and poster are guaranteed to raise your musiclorean levels. By backing this Kickstarter you'll help cover the costs for: Video 1 How to Play the Grammatika/Music Theory in Plain English 1. Video 2 Turn plain English into Musical Nomenclature 1. Video 3 1. The app itself combines the Circle of Fifths and Scale Scale Degrees and creates and a fingering chart that will turn your instrument into a light saber.
Gehörbildung
An Musikhochschulen werden die Melodiediktate zum Bestehen der Aufnahmeprüfung vorausgesetzt. Ein polyphoner Satz muss hierbei möglichst fehlerfrei nach dem Vorspielen auf dem Klavier notiert werden. Seit 2010 wird diese traditionelle Praxis vor dem Hintergrund der aufkommenden Forderung nach einer kompetenzorientierten Vermittlung von Inhalten sowohl an Schulen als auch an Musikhochschulen und Universitäten hinterfragt.[1] Ebenso ist Gehörbildung ein fester Bestandteil der Abiturprüfung im Leistungskurs Musik einiger Bundesländer. Anfangs trainiert man das Gehör, Intervalle sukzessiv und simultan zu bestimmen. Des Weiteren beinhaltet die Gehörbildung auch die Erfassung verschiedener Akkordgruppen.

Functional pitch recognition[edit] Many musicians use functional pitch recognition in order to identify, understand, and appreciate the roles and meanings of pitches within a key. To this end, scale-degree numbers or movable-do solmization (do, re, mi, etc.) can be quite helpful. Functional pitch recognition is not the same as fixed-do solfège, e.g. do, re, mi, etc. Functional pitch recognition has several strengths. Functional pitch recognition has some weaknesses. Interval recognition[edit] Chord recognition[edit] Microtonal chord and interval recognition[edit] The process is similar to twelve-tone ear training, but with many more intervals to distinguish. Gro Shetelig at The Norwegian Academy of Music is working on the development of a Microtonal Ear Training method for singers[25] and has developed the software Micropalette,[26] a tool for listening to microtonal tones, chords and intervals. Rhythm recognition[edit] A metronome may be used to assist in maintaining accurate tempo.

Music theory is a set of systems for analyzing, classifying, and composing music and the elements of music. Narrowly it may be defined as the description in words of elements of music, and the interrelationship toward the notation of music and performance practice. Broadly, theory may be considered any statement, belief, or concept of the music (Boretz, 1995). Subcategories This category has the following 23 subcategories, out of 23 total.
