I'm assuming that Jenny Ji hasn't hoodwinked us by covertly consulting the score, before reviewing this song in this Youtube video. To improve my ear training, I deliberately refrained from readi...
We love and listen to the Second Viennese School like Berg, Schoenberg, Webern — even before my daughter was born! My daughter's studying music at university. To guard privacy, I don't want to writ...
Please see https://youtu.be/P_6i0Js-aw4?t=184. This is Tiffany Young singing Not Barbie, on her Lips on Lips tour in San Francisco, dated March 15 2019. As her fan (to her right) tries to speak to...
My daughter's been listening to KPop, like Girls' Generation Into the New World. You can watch the Ballad versions, with NO dancing, at the Tokyo Dome for the 2011 Girls Generation Tour, and Girls ...
I've been listening to Into the New World (song) since 2007. But I didn't realize until today that Mindblown. : SNSD the opening phrase in ITNW contains the same sequence of notes as the first ...
I hope it's obvious to you that this music sounds "Chinese". Why though? Does it use a Major Pentatonic scale? parallel harmony in fourths and fifths? portamento? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=...
I love this piece, and I've been craving similar music! The vocals feel like yipping, but liberating and uplifting! I don't know how to embed video in http://www.splitmusic.co.uk/placements/cathay...
Can anyone substantiate the asserveration below? Why do some people dislike Schoenberg so intensely? : classicalmusic That didn't happen, I think, for two reasons. First, as I mentioned, his mus...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OoZdwam7wgw is based on just one piece, Mahler's Symphony 2, and a sample size of one from which we can't conclude anything. But I've noticed these wildly different ...
The emboldened sentence below isn't evidenced on Wikipedia. Is it true? If so, why? Yevgeny Mravinsky - Wikipedia The music of Dmitri Shostakovich was closely associated with Mravinsky, beginni...
I don't feel qualified to answer your first question, as I'm just very inexperienced with serialism. I'm going to spend my time answering your second question. Isn't a point of music theory to p...
Yes, but with limits I don't see why this would be a problem, provided the question is specific enough - asking for an analysis of an entire (e.g.) opera is a bit on the 'too much' side, in my opi...
I doubt this is something the average person can do. In my experience, most people can recognize a scale as being major or minor; people with some music background can tell you the relative major t...
Consider a piece of music that one is trying to analyze (let's say chord progressions), but he is struggling with doing so. He can tell that the section works, but he can't tell how. Would a quest...
I can't speak to Stravinsky specifically, so perhaps this is not an answer to your question, but you also ask: How could a skilled composer like him be unskilled at conducting? Composing, pla...
I enjoy, and have no problems with: Xenakis's pieces for Solo Instruments (esp. tonal pieces like Six chansons pour piano), Percussion (Ensemble), or String (Ensemble). no more than a ha...
I've been listening to the Second Viennese School for 5 years now, and I love their music. Yet whenever I listen to a tone row, especially a new one, I can't hear its transformations in my head. I ...

I'm assuming that Stravinsky was healthy, could see and hear well, and had no personality disorders. How could a skilled composer like him be unskilled at conducting? Stravinsky as Pioneer of a Ne...
A friend and I were having a conversation about the similarity of music to speech, and the importance of phrasing with silence or resolution to allow reflection on what has been heard. Is there any...
I've been seeing that many traditional sound systems have switched from long runs of audio cable to using networking cable using the DANTE system. Is this a proprietary system or open standard? Doe...

A while ago I came across this amazing video, which answers your question thoroughly: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vq2xt2D3e3E According to that video the specific scale pattern you gave is ca...
It seems that a Ukrainian Dorian scale exists which matches the scale you wrote out. In music, the Romanian Minor scale or Ukrainian Dorian scale or altered Dorian scale is a musical scale or th...
For obvious reasons, it would be helpful to be able to write out sheet music in our posts. There's already the MathJax plugin used on other Codidact sites, and TeX has a plugin called MusixTex whi...
