05. Motion in Music

📁 Peterson Academy Introduction to Music Theory with Samuel Andreyev 🎬 05/08. Motion in Music In lecture five, Samuel Andreyev explains concept that music inherently wants to move, examining how music expresses ideas of movement through both literal embodied motion and sublimated forward progression. We delve into mechanics of harmonic motion through consonance and dissonance, where consonance represents stability while dissonance creates need for movement or resolution, and analyze various types of cadences that function as musical punctuation. Lecture concludes with exploration of voice leading principles in four-part harmony, emphasizing smooth movement between chords, proper voice spacing and avoidance of forbidden parallels to maintain independence of individual voices.
