Anyone else interested in 12 tone music? I've just gotten back into making music, and fooling around especially with 12 tone. I'm curious how others feel, you know-- is it too much, or is 12 tone a relevant, viable system of composition? |

|
no thanks... :/ |

I appreciate it the historical signifigance of it and some of my favorite contemporary composers either fooled around with this style at one time, and adopted some traits into their own styles, but I do not like listening to music made like that. |

On a philosophical level? Love it.. it's so pure. It's not always easy to listen to though. Never tried to make it. |

Don't pianist give it 12 tone when they're pissed? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
i agree with that 100% |
||||||||
|

2 Tone for me thank you |
||||||||
|

if it aint broke dont fix. whats the point of this. |

12 tone doesn't have a key. Each of the 12 notes in a chromatic scale are equally important, and the rules of composition (for the style) are that you can't repeat a note until all 12 notes have been played. |
||||||||

|
|
oh, so it only differs from composing in a chromatic scale in that you can't repeat a note until the others have been used? |

12 tone music... serial music. look up [or i could do it for you] |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
haha, I'm going to give it a go just for my own enjoyment does it say anything about not holding the notes? I can produce chords, right? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thanks i can get along with one tone already |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

yes, you can use chords -- as long as no note is repeated. i don't understand traditional composition-- so that's the only reason I'm so gung-ho into 12 tone. I don't know how to make melodies with a regular chromatic scale hahahah :) |

I usually don't bother with any particular rules of composition, I just go with what sounds good however, sometimes it's good to restrict yourself, and a good way to do that is to just set a scale and work within it.. hehe, a chromatic scale isn't really a restriction, but the "don't use that tone before you've used the other tones" is... |

|
you're confusing a-tonal and 12-tone, one isn't necessarily the other |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
There's like, "notes", and they're arranged in some sort of order some think, but I'll be damned if I can make a song out of them. People that write snakeman megaman 3 music don't use these notes, they use "magic music particles". |
||||||||

|
|
is 12 tone a relevant, viable system of composition? No. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

Moreover, you are allowed to repeate melodies that you have made using 12 tone by going back and forth through notes that you have just played, but that is the only way you can repeat notes before going through all 12 notes. Like this: C G C# G C G C# F |
||||||||
|

|
you can turn them around and you can transpose them within the octave, like turning the series around vertically around the middle note also you can hit all the octaves it's just a method of making things as complex as possible because you have the least repetition as possible also it's theoretical stuff |

You know, I am having enough of a time learning scales. Bullocks to all this wankery. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
hehe, the theory is really simple, all 12 tones is an easy scale :) |
