But while phrase books are limited to locutions consecrated by usage, the THESAURUS includes a great number of melodically plausible patterns that are new. In fact, many compositions appearing in recent years contain thematic figuses identical with those found in the THESAURUS, From time to time musical theorists have suggested the possibility of forming en- tirely new scales based on the division of the octave into several equal parts. As early as rorr the Italian musician Domenico Alaleona proposed such new scales. Alois Haba, in his Neue Harmoniclehre (1927), classifies a great number of scales based on equal intervals and suggests harmonizations of these new scales. Joseph Schillinger in his posthumously published Schillinger System of Musical Composition classifies new tonal progressions in the chapter Theoty of Pitch Scales, The scales and melodic patterns in the THESAURUS ate systematized in a manner convenient to composers in search of new materials, The title THESAURUS OF SCALES AND MELODIC PATTERNS is chosen advisedly. The term scale, as here used, means a Progression, either diatonic or chromatic, that proceeds uniformly in one direction, ascending or descending, until the terminal point is reached, A melodic pattern, on the other hand, may be formed by any group of notes that has melodic plausibilicy. There are scales of 4 notes only; and there are scales and patterns of x2 different notes. But counting repeated notes appearing in different octaves, a scale may have as many as 48 functionally different notes, as in the Disjunct Major Polytetrachord (No. 958). As to melodic patterns, there is virtually no limit to the number of such tones, ‘The THEsauRUS is arranged in the form of piano scales and melodic studies. No fingering is given, for the pianist will readily find the type of digitation bese suited to the hand. Other instrumentalists, too, will find most of the scales and melodic patterns in the THEsauRus adaptable co their instruments. ‘The notation throughout is enhar- monic, and accidentals are used according to convenience. Double sharps and double flats are avoided entirely. Precautionary natural signs are placed here and there when an unusual melodic interval occurs. All accidentals affect only the note immediately following. ‘The scales and pattems in the THEsauRus are arranged according to the principal interval of each particular section. In order to avoid association with a definite tonality, these basic intervals are here referred to by Latin and Greek names derived from old usage. In addition, new terms had to be coined for intervals not in the system of historic scales, In these new terms the prefix sesqui stands for the addition of one-half of a tone. Thus, Sesquitone is 1% tones, or a minor third; Sesquiquadritone is 444 tones, ot 4 major sixth; and Sesquiquinquetone is 5Y4 tones, or a major seventh. i ‘The table of intervals from the semitone to the major seventh appears as follows: Semitone. Minor Second Tritone ‘Augmented Fourth Whole Tone......... Major Second Diapente Perfect Fifth Sesquitone Minor Third Quadritone. Minor Sixth Ditone Major Third Sesquiquadritone... Major Sixth Diatessaron. Perfect Fourth Quinguetone. Minor Seventh Sesquiquinguetone Major Seventh ‘The interval of a major nisth is called Septitone, to indicate that it contains 7 whole tones. These basic intervals ae regarded as fractions of one or more octaves. Thus, the Tritone Progression represents the division of the octave into 2 equal parts, and it produces sequential scales and patterns, The Ditone Progression is the division of the octave into 3 equal parts, and is intervallically identical with the augmented triad. The Sesquitone Progression is the division of the octave into 4 equal parts, and is iden- tical with the familiar diminished-seventh chord. The Whole-Tone scale represents the equal division of the octave into 6 parts, The Semitone Progression is equivalent to the chromatic scale. By the process of permutation the chromatic scale is productive of characteristic patterns of the 12-tone technique. By dividing 2 octaves into 3 equal parts we obtain the Quadritone Progression, which is closely related to the Ditone Progression, being in fact a spread-out augmented triad. By dividing 3 octaves into 4 equal parts we obtain the interval of the major sixth. This is the Sesquiquadritone Progression, which is an unfolded Sesquitone Progres- sion, productive of patterns related to diminished-seventh harmonies. In the cycle of scales the interval of a perfect fifth is one-twelfth part of 7 octaves, and it is so represented in the Diapente Progression. A perfect fourth is one-cwelfth part of 5 octaves, and is classified as such in the section Diatessaron Progression. Pursuing a similar process, we find that the Sesquiquinquetone Progression, or the progression of major sevenths, is the result of the equal division of rr octaves into 12 parts, Finally, che Septitone Progression is the equal division of 7 octaves into 6 parts, with the basic interval of a major ninth. Scales and melodic patterns are formed by the processes of Interpolation, Infra- polation, and Ultrapolation. The word Interpolation is in common usage; here it signifies the insertion of one or several notes becween the principal tones. Infrapolation and Ultrapolation are coined words. Infrapolation indicates the addition of a note below a principal tone; Ulerapolation is the addition of a note above the next principal tone, Infrapolation and Ulerapolation result in the shife of direction, with the melodic line progressing in zigzags. Infrapolation, Interpolation and Ultrapolation may be freely combined, resulting in hyphenated forms: Infra-Interpolation, Infra-Ultrapola- tion, and Infra-Inter-Ultrapolation. PrincipalTones Interpolation Ultrapolation Infrapolation i= = = Infra-Interpolation Infra-Ultrapolation Infra-Inter-Ultrapolation Progressions and patterns based on unequal division of the occave are exemplified by Heptatonic scales and Pentaconic scales. Among Heptatonic scales, or 7-tone scales, are our familiar major and minor scales as well as the church modes. In the section Heptatonic Arpeggios the scales are spread out in thirds. In the section Bitonal Arpeg- Bios the C major arpeggio is combined with arpeggios in all other 23 major and minor keys. Busoni, who had earnestly explored new musical resources, found 113 different scales of 7 notes. Mentioning as an example the scale: C, Db, Eb, Fb, Gb, Ab, Bb, C (it is No. 1035 in the THesaurus), he writes in his Entwurf einer neuen Aesthetib der Tonkunst: “There is a significant difference between the sound of this new scale when C is taken as the tonic and when it is taken as the leading tone of the scale of Db minor. By harmonizing the tonic with the customary C major triad as a fundamental chord, a novel harmonic sensation is obtained.” In his Chronicle of My Musical Life Rimsky-Korsakov mentions the use he made of an 8-tone scale, formed by alternating major and minor seconds. This is Scale No. 393 in the THESAURUS, Sporadic uses of the Whole-Tone scale are found in Glinka and even in Mozart (as a jest to mock the inept Dorfmusikanten), but it did not become a deliberate device before Debussy. In Debussy’s piano piece Voiles the prin- cipal melodic structure is in the Whole-Tone scale, but the middle part is written exclusively on the black keys, exemplifying the Pentatonic scale. The Whole-Tone scale has 6 notes to the octave; the Pentatonic scale has five. The Whole-Tone scale is possible in only one form on a given nore, but there can be many Pentatonic scales. There ate 49 Pentatonic scales in the THESAURUS. The 12-Tone Technique of composition promulgated by Schoenberg is based on permutations of the Semitone scale. Various x2-tone patterns ate found in the THE- sauRus in examples No. 1214 to No. 1318. For example, it is possible to arrange the 12 chromatic tones in 2 major and 2 minor triads without repeating a note. It is also possible to form 4 mutually exclusive augmented triads using all 12 chromatic tones. ‘The theme of Liszt’s Faust Symphony is composed of 4 augmented triads, It is further possible to split the chromatic scale into a diminished triad, a minor triad, a major triad, and an augmented triad. These mutually exclusive triads can be arranged in the form of Quadritonal Arpeggios. A recent development of the 12-Tone Technique is the x1-interval technique, which prescribes the formation of progressions containing x1 different intervals. The idea was first introduced by che Austrian musician Fritz Klein in 1921 in a curious composition entitled Die Maschine, with the subtitle Ex-Tonal Self-Satire. The name of the com- Poser was concealed behind a characteristic nom de plume Heautontimorumenus which ‘means Self-Torcurer. In this piece Klein introduced a Mother Chord which contains nor only all xx different intervals, but 12 different notes as well. A further elaboration on the Mother Chord is an invertible r1-interval, 12-tone chord introduced by the author and appropriately christened Grandmother Chord. Ie has all the intervallic properties of the Mother Chord plus an especial order of inter- vals so arranged that they are alternately odd-numbered and even-numbered when counted in semitones, with the row of odd-numbered intervals forming a decreasing arithmetical progression and the row of even-numbered intervals forming an increas- ing arithmetical progression. The order of notes in the Grandmother Chord is identical with the r2-tone Spiral Pattern No. 12322. iii [All chords composed of x1 different intervals add up to the interval of 66 semi- tones, which is the sum of the arithmetical progression from r to 11. The interval of 66 semitones equals 544 octaves, and so forms a Tritone between the lowest and che highest tones in the Pyramid Chord, Mother Chord, Grandmother Chord, and other ri-interval structures. ‘Scales and patterns listed in the main body of the THESAURUS readily lend them- selves to new melodic possibilities. For instance, a descending scale may be played in the form of the melodic inversion of the ascending scale, as suggested in the section Mirror Interval Progressions. Ic is possible to form complementary scales in the range of 2 octaves, by using in the second octave the notes not used in the first. Other possi- bilities for the formation of new patterns are demonstrated in the section on Permnu- tations. ‘A Diatonic counterpart of the 12-Tone Technique is the system of Pandiatonic composition. The term Pandiatonic, first introduced by this writer in 1937, denotes the free use of all 7 tones of the diatonic scale, both melodically and harmonically. In one-part Pandiatonic Progressions, the melody is made up of 7 different notes of the diatonic scale. Such a progression may then be melodically inverted, read backward, or both, resulting in 4 different forms. Pandiatonic Counterpoint in strict style uses progressions of 7 different notes in each voice, with no vertical duplication. Pandiatonic Harmony is the ewentieth century counterpart of classical harmony. Modern composers of such varied backgrounds and musical persuasions as Ravel, Stravinsky, Hindemith, Milhaud, Copland and Roy Harris make use of this technique, arriving at it by different creative processes. Jazz composers, t00, have found, by sheer experimentation, effective application for the enriched chords of Pandiatonic forma- tions. It is a common practice to end an orchestral arrangement of a popular song by the enriched major triad with an added sixth, seventh, or ninth. The concluding sections of che THESAURUS demonstrate the various methods by which tonal materials may be used to best advantage. The section Double Notes shows the combinations derived from corresponding scales and patterns. Plural Scales and ‘Arpeggios give examples of common major and minor progressions arranged consecu- tively in chromatic transposition. Polytonal Scales are simuleaneous progressions in different keys. Polychythmic Scales are progressions in different rhythms. Polytonal Polyrhythmic Scales combine different rhythms in different conalities. ‘A special word is to be said about Palindromic Canons. Palindromes are words or sentences that read the same forward or backward, as the sentence Able Was I Ere 1 Saw Elba (applied to Napoleon). Similarly, Palindromic Canons read the same back- ward or forward. The two Palindromic Canons based on Pattern No. 72 are particularly interesting. They result in a progression of enharmonic triads or their inversions, aleer- nating in major and minor keys. Fragments of the scales and patterns in the THESAURUS may be used as motives and themes, The rhythmical elaboration is left to the imagination of the composer. By using a portion of a pattern in forward and retrograde motion, in varied rhythms within a given meter, it is possible to form an unlimiced number of melodic figures. pattern 12104 Rhythmic Development SS eget iv ‘Two formulas are used in the harmonization of the scales and patterns: one by com- mon triads, and one by seventh-chords. In the harmonization by common ttiads, only root positions of major triads in close harmony are applied. Either the root, che third, or the fifth may appear in the melody. These positions are referred to as Octave, Ter. tian, and Quintan, or in figures, 8, 3, and 5. When the melody ascends, diatonically or chromatically, the positions change from the Octave to the Tertian to the Quintan to the Octave. When the melody descends, the order of the positions is reversed. Furthermore, the order of positions may be reversed at the end of a cadence even in ascending motion. When the melody is stationary, the order of positions is free, The re- sulting harmony traverses several tonalities in an alternation of successive major chords, Harmonization in Major Triads (Figures Indicate Intervals Between the Melody and the Bass) The harmonization in major triads is found in the music of Debussy, Mussorgsky, and other composers of the French and Russian schools. A classical example is the scene in the monk's cell in Moussorgsky's opera Boris Godunov. In the second act of Puccini's opera Tosca the Whole-Tone scale in the bass is harmonized by a row of major triads with the positions following the Ocaave-Tertian-Quintan (8-5-5) formula Moussorgsky: Boris Godunov Puccini: Tosca (Whoto-Tone Scale i the Bass) : SS = The second type of harmonization is effected by means of Master Chords. These Master Chords are dominantseventh chords with the fifth omitted. In combination with melodic elements of a given scale or pattern, these chords form harmonic struc- tures of the type of seventh-chords, ninth-chords, or whole-tone chords. The Master Chords are indicated for ascending scales and parterns in the sections Tritone Pro- gression, Ditone Progression and Sesquitone Progression by figures within circles, as ©, and are used to harmonize an entire rhythmic group in a given progression. In the Tritone and Sesquitone Progressions it is also possible to harmonize the entire octave range with a single Master Chord. Furthermore, any Master Chord suitable for harmo- nization of a given progression may be transposed a tritone up or down with satisfactory results. Harmonization with Master Chords Pattorn NESS Pattern NO188 Pattern ® —__b Harmonization of both types is given in the tables on pp.240-241. To harmonize in major triads, itis necessary to alternate the Octave, Tertian, and Quintan positions given in the table. In harmonizing by seventh-chords, ninth-chords, and whole-tone chords, any chord under a given melody note will furnish a workable harmony. ‘The patterns in the Diatessaron and Diapente Progressions lend themselves to har- monization characteristic of the Dominant-Tonic cycle. When harmonized in consecutive seventh-chords, such patterns acquire a Schumannesque quality. Harmonization in Seventh-Chords Pattern N2656 ‘A harmonization of the Dominant-Tonic type will impart a feeling of tonality even to a 12-tone progression, Pattern N04 Tonal Harmonization of a 12-Tone Pattern Z22] — RF a NS ‘Traditional harmonization in major and minor keys uses chords formed by the dia- tonic scale. Similarly, new scales may be harmonized with the aid of chords formed by the notes of the scale itself. Examples of such Autochordal Harmonization are given in a special table, There are scales that admit of only 2 different triads, as Scale No. 7, which can be harmonized with C major and F$ major triads. The 8-tone scale No. 393 is capable of forming 8 different triads, while other scales, such as No. 5, do not yield a single triad. AIL scales and patterns in the THESAURUS are centered on C as the initial and con- cluding tone. It goes without saying that these progressions can be transposed to any tonal center according to a composer's requirements John Stuart Mill once wrote: “I was seriously tormented by the thought of the ex- haustibility of musical combinations, The octave consists only of five tones and two semitones, which can be put together in only a limited number of ways of which but a small proportion are beautiful: most of these, it seemed to me, must have been already discovered, and there could not be room for a long succession of Mozarts and Webers to strike ous, as these have done, entirely new surpassing rich veins of musical beauty. This sore of anxiety, may, perhaps, be thought to resemble that of the philosophers of Laputa, who feared lest the sun be burnt out.” The fears of John Stuart Mill are unjustified. There are 479,001,600 possible com- binations of the 12 tones of the chromatic scale. With rhythmic variety added to the unbounded universe of melodic patterns, there is no likelihood that new music will die of internal starvation in the next 1000 years.
