A: Ought laypeople be able to imagine a tone row's transformations in their head, without hearing or playing them? 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 to a minor scale or vice versa; and people with a bit more music background may be able to spit out the s...

Theoretically speaking, if the concern is that we'll end up with too many of these types of questions, we _could_ add an "analysis" category. (more) |

Are questions about analyzing a composition allowed? 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 question to the effect of "can someone help me analyze the music theory behind this section of this song" b... (more) |

@Quintec Admittedly MusixTex is fairly obtuse. If the design team pursues that avenue of approach, I would recommend simplifying some of the commands, similar to how MathJax simplifies many of the base LaTeX commands. (more) |

| Question | — |
Request: Drawing out music? 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 which allows using the Tex software to write sheet music. Is there a way to combine these two to allow ea... (more) |

| Question | — |
"Properly" naming rotations of unusual scales? Consider the following musical scale, with a root of A: >A — B — C — D — E — F — G# — A This is, quite clearly, A Harmonic Minor. Let me rewrite the above scale in terms of tone (step) differences: >W — H — W — W — H — A — H where A refers to an augmented second, or three half-tones. ... (more) |
