Hexachord
In music, a hexachord (also hexachordon) is a six-note series, as exhibited in a scale (hexatonic or hexad) or tone row. The term was adopted in this sense during the Middle Ages and adapted in the 20th century in Milton Babbitt's serial theory. The word is taken from the ἑξάχορδος, compounded from ἕξ (hex, six) and χορδή (chordē, string [of the lyre], whence "note"), and was also the term used in music theory up to the 18th century for the interval of a sixth ("hexachord major" being the major sixth and "hexachord minor" the minor sixth).
Tone row
In music, a tone row or note row (Reihe or Tonreihe), also series or set, is a non-repetitive ordering of a set of pitch-classes, typically of the twelve notes in musical set theory of the chromatic scale, though both larger and smaller sets are sometimes found. Tone rows are the basis of Arnold Schoenberg's twelve-tone technique and most types of serial music. Tone rows were widely used in 20th-century contemporary music, like Dmitri Shostakovich's use of twelve-tone rows, "without dodecaphonic transformations.
Musique sérielle
La musique sérielle ou le sérialisme est une technique de composition fondée sur l'utilisation de séries d'éléments musicaux. Initié en 1923 par Arnold Schönberg avec le dodécaphonisme, le sérialisme permet de composer des œuvres atonales. Ce concept englobe les musiques dont le principe de construction se fonde sur une succession rigoureusement préétablie et invariable de sons appelée série. Les rapports d'intervalle propres à la série restant stables.
Perfect fourth
A fourth is a musical interval encompassing four staff positions in the music notation of Western culture, and a perfect fourth () is the fourth spanning five semitones (half steps, or half tones). For example, the ascending interval from C to the next F is a perfect fourth, because the note F is the fifth semitone above C, and there are four staff positions between C and F. Diminished and augmented fourths span the same number of staff positions, but consist of a different number of semitones (four and six, respectively).
Théorie de la musique
Une théorie de la musique est un ensemble de règles décrivant le système musical d'une culture particulière. Le corpus mondial de textes théoriques concernant la musique est immense. Chaque culture musicale possède ses propres formes. Les théories de la musique regroupent des ensembles de notions concernant la production et l'organisation des sons musicaux, qui ne définissent pas nécessairement tous de la même façon le temps, le caractère distinctif de chaque son, et les relations entre sons successifs ou simultanés.
