rautavaara Posted January 14, 2009 Posted January 14, 2009 Explain to me the concept of 'revolving' or 'rotating' hexachords? This is in relation to modern compositional techniques, involving tone-rows. Quote
Ferkungamabooboo Posted January 14, 2009 Posted January 14, 2009 Twelve Tone Composition Part 2 The section on "Tropes" seems close to what I remember. It's further permutations of the series, I think. I've used this technique before, but wasn't too ecstatic with the results. I feel you need a carefully crafted tone-row to pull it off. Quote
