Modern Music Systems: A New Perspective On Music Scales, Clefs, And Chords

By Joseph L. D'Agostino

In the field of good old-fashioned music theory, innovations are few and far between. Regarding Western music literature and theory, has everything imaginable been said? Has every idea been entertained? Have all possibilities been exhausted? Maybe not. MODERN MUSIC SYSTEMS presents four innovations: "The Scale Phrase System," a new way to construct, identify, and classify existing scales; "System C Clef Notation," a clef system that conveniently employs only one type of clef; "System 2000 Chord Notation," a chord notation system that leaves virtually no room for the misunderstanding or misinterpretation of any given chord's elements; and "Tone Lining," a perspective that addresses the inaccuracy of the traditional terminology presently being used to denote orchestral lines of tones.
