PeterthePapercomPoser Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago I come to you with yet another piece prompted by an exercise from Persichetti's "20th Century Harmony" - Chapter 2: Scale Materials. This time the prompt was "11. Extend the following polymodal and polytonal passage." I chose to change the instrumentation to Bass Clarinet and Sopranino Clarinet as I thought that increasing the distance between the voices would preserve their individuality. I also heard the bottom voice as being more in C dorian rather than in G aeolian. But for the end of the piece I defaulted to a kind of linear cadence rather than ending each voice on its individual tonic. Thanks for listening and I hope you enjoy and let me know what you think!
