Harmony in Music: Counterpoint and Chord Progressions
This lecture explores the principles of harmony in music, focusing on counterpoint and chord progressions. It delves into the historical development of polyphony, the rules of counterpoint, and the interplay between consonances and dissonances. The instructor discusses the hierarchical structure of chord sequences, the use of harmony in tonal music, and the transition from counterpoint to harmony. Additionally, the lecture covers the characterization of tonality through transition tables and the interpretation of grammars in describing harmonic sequences.
