preliminary note:

SERIOUS TYPO ERROR IN
ENGLISH TRANSLATION OF HARMONIELEHRE

I've been writing for years about the inconsistency of Schönberg's notation of the 11th harmonic in the diagram on p 24 in the Carter translation. Well, I was just stunned to find out that in the 1911 German edition, the 11th harmonic of F is written as "b", *which in German means b-flat*! (our "b" is written as "h"). The Carter translation gives it as "b", which equates it with the 5th partial of G rather than the correct equivalence intended by Schönberg, which is with the 7th partial of C, and so my writings on Schönberg's theories must be revised. The diagrams here have all been corrected to agree with the 1911 German edition.

I wanted to attempt a more rigorous answer to this.

Back in July, when I started all this about Schoenberg, I wrote:

Here, I will further adapt Schoenberg's diagram to make
his explanation as clear as possible, by adding the
partial-numbers and the fundamentals, which are the two
factors which when multiplied together give the relative
frequency-number of each note.  The fundamentals are
F = 4, C = 6, G = 9.

                                      d = 12*9 = 108

                                     (f =  7*9 =  63)
                    e = 10*6 = 60

Here are the pitches (in my 72-EDO HEWM notation) and
frequency-numbers on a lattice diagram:

                   C^
                  / \99
                 /   \
                /     \               A

                      8 16 32 [64]    (28)


These are all the unison-vectors implied by Schoenberg's diagram:

E  5*6=30 : Eb 4*7=28  =  15:14
Bb11*4=44 : Bb 7*6=42  =  22:21
B  5*9=45 : Bb11*4=44  =  45:44
B  5*9=45 : Bb 7*6=42  =  15:14
F 16*4=64 : F  7*9=63  =  64:63
F 11*6=66 : F 16*4=64  =  33:32
F 11*6=66 : F  7*9=63  =  22:21
A  9*9=81 :(A 20*4=80) =  81:80
C 11*9=99 :(C 24*4=96) =  33:32

(The high "A" and "C" in parentheses are not explicitly indicated
by Schoenberg, but may be inferred from his theory.)

So the only 5-limit unison-vector indicated here is the 81:80
syntonic comma, and even that is only inferred but not stated.
Its applicability to his theory, as well as that of other
5-limit UVs, must be inferred from a careful study of other
explanations in _Harmonielehre_, as I indicated in my last post.

The 15:14 arises only in connection with the notes Schoenberg
himself placed in parentheses.  The other UVs are explicitly
indicated by Schoenberg.

-------

I thought it worth pointing out that if the 15:14 is considered
as a unison-vector, a 7-tone periodicity-block results, i.e.,
the diatonic scale.  But if instead 15:14 is considered a
*chromatic* vector, and thus is not included in the unison-vector
matrix, then a 12-tone periodicity-block results.

Worth pointing out, because in the climactic final three chapters
toward which all of _Harmonielehre_ builds, Schoenberg introduces
structures such as the whole-tone scale and its related augmented-type
chords; chords built completely in 4ths -- both perfect and altered --
and finally, completely free use of all the notes of the *chromatic*
scale ... all of this as Schoenberg describes it is based on 12-EDO
tuning.  He makes

Thus, leaving out the chromatic-vectors so that we will get at least
12 distinct tones, the unison-vectors implied by Schoenberg's 1911
diagram are:

Bb11*4=44 : Bb 7*6=42  =  22:21
F 16*4=64 : F  7*9=63  =  64:63
F 11*6=66 : F 16*4=64  =  33:32
F 11*6=66 : F  7*9=63  =  22:21
A  9*9=81 :(A 20*4=80) =  81:80
C 11*9=99 :(C 24*4=96) =  33:32


Here is a better version of the lattice, with unison-vectors
indicated by dashed lines.  (Note that this lattice is inverted
with respect to the one above.)

As can be seen plainly on the lattice, these four unison-vectors are not independent. Any one of the triplet 64:63, 33:32, and 22:21 (whose dashed lines form a triangle on the lattice) can be found by multiplying the other two. Then at the very end, a stunning coda speculating on _klangfarbenmelodie_: (in which Schönberg feels compelled to offer his _credo_) >> ... it must also be possible to make such progressions out of the >> tone colors of the other dimension, out of that which we call simply >> 'tone color', progressions whose relations with one another work >> with a kind of logic entirely equivalent to that logic which satisfies >> us in the melody of pitches.

It's also worth pointing out that Schönberg's insistence on a *12*-tone scale didn't appear in _Harmonielehre_ until the revised version of 1922. >> In Chapter IV, ... Schoenberg so extended his footnote on the more minute subdivision of the octave that it is now almost a chapter in itself. In the revised edition he went on in this footnote to deny that further subdivision of the octave was necessary as the next step beyond the tonal (diatonic-chromatic) system. He went on to argue for the use of twelve tones, elaborated polyphonically, as preferable, at least for some time, to further proliferation of tones within the octave. Finer subdivision of the octave Schoenberg did not accept as, at that time, technologically feasible or culturally necessary. Whatever the reason for the lame ending in 1911, he did continue in the revised edition. ... ...Perhaps the latter statement merely makes clear what he had intended to say in the first edition. I'd say that there's much more in that statement, and its revision, than Carter imagines. With the hindsight provided by the knowledge of the microtonal experiments of Schönberg and Webern in 1908, the 1911 comment clearly displays to me Schönberg's still unabated interest in microtonality, even as he rejected its systematic use for his own compositions -- except for _sprechstimme_, which is an important exception, and which bore its finest fruit the year after _Harmonielehre_ with _Pierrot Lunaire_. Carter is right to carefully point out the differences between the 1911 and 1922 versions of _Harmonielehre_. But his focus seems to me to be on giving the clearest presentation of Schönberg's *final* thoughts on the subject, whereas my interest is wholly on determining exactly what Schönberg was thinking in 1911.

But now let's try to find the other unison-vector we need from Schoenberg's musical examples. If our 1/1 is called "C", in his overtone diagram, Schoenberg calls "Eb" the "6th overtone [= 7th harmonic] of F", so that its ratio is 7/6. But then Schoenberg leaves the discussion of implied 7- and higher-limit harmonies to the later chapters, and devotes several chapters to explaining the diatonic major scale and its harmonies, using C as a reference pitch and C-majoras the reference scale and key. The diagram immediately before the one referred to above is one in which he derives the diatonic major scale from the first 6 harmonics of F, C, and G : 5:3-----5:4----15:8 A E B / \ / \ / \ / \ / \ / \ 4:3-----1:1-----3:2-----9:8 F C G D This is standard stuff, going back to Zarlino (1558). And as everyone here knows, a description of standard diatonic chord progressions is going to bump into the syntonic comma wherever a II-V progression is found, which would imply a new D on our lattice at 10/9. According to the expanded diagram of Schoenberg's explanation of the overtone theory on p 23 [p 24 in Carter] (going up to the 12th harmonics), the one I refer to at the beginning, the 81:80 syntonic comma is already a part of the system anyway. He shows A as the 5th and 10th harmonics of F and as the 9th harmonic of G, which are the ratios 81:20 and 81:40, which in turn are the syntonic comma plus 2 "8ves" and 1 "8ve" respectively. So we already have the unison-vector of 81:80 = [-4 4 1] included in our kernel. Schoenberg first introduces chromatic pitches in the chapter "Die Molltonart" [p 110-128 in the original edition, p 95-111 in the Carter edition]: F# and G# in the context of A-minor. To me, his explanation clearly implies a basis somewhere between meantone and 5-limit JI: A-minor is seen as the relative of C-major, so the note A is ~5/3. G# is always regarded as a "leading-tone" and is assumed to be a consonant ~5/4 above the "dominant" E, which is assumed to be ~3/2 above the tonic A. F# is always ~5/4 above D, the "subdominant", which is assumed to be ~4/3 above the tonic A; thus, the 10/9 version of D is the one in effect here. So our diatonic minor-scale paradigm lattice is: 25:18----( )---25:16 F# G# / \ / \ / \ / \ / \ / \ 10:9----5:3-----5:4----15:8 D A E B \ / \ / \ / \ / \ / \ / 4:3-----1:1-----3:2 F C G and again the syntonic comma is in effect because, according to Schoenberg's list of available minor-key chords on p 115 [p 99 in Carter], B can also be 50/27, F# can also be 45/32, and D can still also be 9/8. In a tiny handful of examples Schoenberg also introduces C# as a sharpened "3rd" (= ~5/4) in the II chord in the key of G-major. So altogether up to this point we have this lattice: 50:27---25:18---25:24---25:16 B F# C# G# \ / \ / \ / \ \ / \ / \ / \ 10:9----5:3-----5:4----15:8---45:32 D A E B F# \ / \ / \ / \ / \ / \ / \ / \ / 4:3-----1:1-----3:2-----9:8 F C G D These are the only pitches implied in any of Schoenberg's explanations until the chapter "Modulation" [p 169-198 in the original edition, p 150-174 in the Carter edition]. Thus, excluding the prefatory chapters on aesthetics, about 1/3 of _Harmonielehre_ devoted to discussion of this simple harmonic paradigm. On p 184 [p 161 in Carter], music example number 110, we see a D# in a musical example for the first time in _Harmonielehre_. The first chord is a C-major triad, or I in the key of C-major, which Schoenberg also designates simultaneously as VI in E-minor. The second chord is a V in E-minor, which is a B-major triad, and so its ~5/4 is D# 75/64 : 50:27---25:18---25:24---25:16---75:64 B F# C# G# D# \ / \ / \ / \ / \ \ / \ / \ / \ / \ 10:9----5:3-----5:4----15:8---45:32 D A E B F# \ / \ / \ / \ / \ / \ / \ / \ / 4:3-----1:1-----3:2-----9:8 F C G D So comparing this D# 75/64 with our Eb 7/6, now we finally have a canditate for another 7-limit unison-vector, namely 225:224 = [-5 2 2 -1] . So as of p 184 in _Harmonielehre_, we can construct as system valid for Schoenberg's theories, as follows: kernel 2 3 5 7 11 unison vectors ~cents [ 1 0 0 0 0 ] = 2:1 0 [-5 2 2 -1 0 ] = 225:224 7.711522991 [-4 4 -1 0 0 ] = 81:80 21.5062896 [ 6 -2 0 -1 0 ] = 64:63 27.2640918 [-5 1 0 0 1 ] = 33:32 53.27294323 adjoint [ 12 0 0 0 0 ] [ 19 1 2 -1 0 ] [ 28 4 -4 -4 0 ] [ 34 -2 -4 -10 0 ] [ 41 -1 -2 1 12 ] determinant = | 12 | mapping of ETs to UVs [ 12 -7 12 0 12 ] [ 0 1 0 1 -2 ] [ 0 0 0 0 1 ] [ 0 0 0 1 0 ] [ 0 0 1 0 0 ] This last matrix shows that 12-ET maps all of the unison-vectors except 225:224 to 0 or 12 (i.e., unison), correct?

OK, the 5th column is like the one you already explained to me before, where 11 is mapped to a note 1 generator more than the 12-tET value, like on a second keyboard tuned a quarter-tone higher. So I understand that. The most I can do with the 3rd column is this: the GCD is 2, so that's equivalent to dividing the 8ve in half, right? Which makes the tritone the interval of equivalence? So if I divide the whole column by 2, I get [0 1 -2 -2 -1]. So does this tell me how many generators away from 12-tET this tuning maps 3, 5, 7, and 11? And exactly what *is* the generator? Thanks. -monz Message 2820 From: "genewardsmith" Date: Sun Jan 20, 2002 4:49 pm Subject: Re: deeper analysis of Schoenberg unison-vectors --- In tuning-math@y..., "monz" wrote: > So in other words, the way Gene would write it: > > h12(225/224) = h12(81/80) = h12(64/63) = h12(33/32) = 0 > h12(2/1) = 1 Actually, I'd write it h12(2) = 12; by definition, in fact, hn(2) = n. > But what about the 3rd and 5th column-vectors in the adjoint > (g0 and e0, respectively)?

(1) It is consistent with twintone as well as meantone, and so is a 12-et theory (2) It sends all your commas to 0 mod 12, so again it is a 12-et theory.

The twintone wedgie is tt = [-2,4,4,-2,-12,11] and the meantone wedgie is mt = [-1,-4,-10,-12,13,-4]. We can take wedge products of the wedgie with either vals (leading to intervals) or intervals (leading to vals); in particular we have mt ^ 64/63 = h12 tt ^ 81/80 = -h12 (according to the basis I used in my program). Hence h12 is the only thing which works with both of them. Taking wedge products of wedgies with vals gives us stuff like mt ^ h22 = 225/224 tt ^ h15 = 63/64 and so forth. > 2) How can we see that "it sends all your commas to 0 mod 12"? > Is that what the adjoint's 5th column-vector ("e0") is saying? Right--it sends everything to 0 but 33/32, and it sends that to 12.

If 128:125 is tempered out, the meantone is transformed into 12-tET. Then again, you could just as well temper 2048:2025 out of meantone and get 12-tET, or temper 32768:32805 out of meantone and get 12-tET. These intervals are not just in 1/4-comma meantone. 128:125 is a UV of choice for this purpose _only_ because it's the simplest, _not_ because it's just in 1/4-comma meantone.

Hmm . . . quarter-tones should _not_ figure into an analysis of a 12- tone periodicity block. Gene, am I missing something?

Gene, am I missing something? Quarter-tones have nothing to do with it--it's telling us that 11 is being mapped inconsistently.

The 1/2-octave can be thought of as a generator in the same way that 1 octave can be thought of as a generator in the usual cases, say meantone for example. Normally we refer to the _other_ generator as _the_ generator, and 1/2-octave or 1 octave or 1/n octave as the period. It's the interval of repetition.

The "notation" would allow you to specify just ratios unambiguously.

Practicing my 22-tET guitar is a great lesson in twintone that I can apply back on my 12-tET guitar. Same for 31-tET and meantone. Both guitars make me better at 12-tET. Of course, 12-tET always sounds out-of-tune afterwards.

The Schoenberg PBs i've been posting have been defined entirely by commatic unison-vectors. Paul also posted something about how i would need to include a *chromatic* unison-vector in order to arrive at a Smithian "notation" (... i've searched for that post but can't find it). Well, i was thinking about this and realized that here the 441/440 is a perfect candidate for a chromatic unison-vector! So i plugged it into my spreadsheet matrix in place of 2/1, using the unison-vectors i derived directly from _Harmonielehre_ (rather than Gene's Minkowski-reduced ones): kernel: 2 3 5 7 11 ratio ~cents [-3 2 -1 2 -1] = 441:440 3.93016 [-5 2 2 -1 0] = 225:224 7.71152 [-4 4 -1 0 0] = 81:80 21.50629 [ 6 -2 0 -1 0] = 64:63 27.26409 [-5 1 0 0 1] = 33:32 53.27294 and got a unimodular adjoint (or is that unimodular inverse?): adjoint: [12 5 -2 19 12] [19 8 -3 30 19] [28 12 -5 44 28] [34 14 -6 53 34] [41 17 -7 65 42] Here i see two alternative mappings to 12, in which the only difference is h12(11)=41 or 42. The pentatonic mapping is in there, and now there's also one that goes to 19. But what to make of that third column? the -h2(2)=-2 means that some form of tritone is the period, correct? But how do i find the generator? Until i know what that is, the other numbers don't make any sense ... do they? And as Paul predicted, this time Gene's formula worked like a charm, and i got the following JI PB scale: degree ratio vector 2 3 5 7 11 ( 12 2/1 [ 1 0 0 0 0] ) 11 15/8 [-3 1 1 0 0] 10 16/9 [ 4 -2 0 0 0] 9 5/3 [ 0 -1 1 0 0] 8 8/5 [ 3 0 -1 0 0] 7 3/2 [-1 1 0 0 0] 6 10/7 [ 1 0 1 -1 0] 5 4/3 [ 2 -1 0 0 0] 4 5/4 [-2 0 1 0 0] 3 32/27 [ 5 -3 0 0 0] 2 9/8 [-3 2 0 0 0] 1 16/15 [ 4 -1 -1 0 0] 0 1/1 [ 0 0 0 0 0] triangular lattice: A E B 5:3.------.5:4-----15:8 / \ ` F# ' / \ / \ / \ 10:7 / \ / \ / \ | / \ / \ Eb Bb F C G D 32:27----16:9-----4:3-------1:1------3:2-----9:8 \ / \ / \ / \ / \ / \ / Db Ab 16:15----8:5 In my quest to find this notation, Paul has already suggested that i "forget it", since Schoenberg clearly meant for all of these unison-vectors to be tempered out of his system. But, more than once in _Harmonielehre_, Schoenberg did indeed allude to a rational basis which might underlie the compositions from his "free atonality" period, so i'm very interested in examining that rational basis. So, guys, am i on the right track with this one? Paul, how does this scale compare with the PB you would find by your method using these criteria? -monz 3202 From: monz Date: Sun Feb 3, 2002 7:10am Subject: Re: a notation for Schoenberg's rational implications Take 2 ... Here's another JI PB for comparison, derived from 45:44, which i had originally interpreted as a commatic unison-vector -- thanks to the misprint i discovered in the English translation (B instead of Bb for 11th/F), and which led me down the wrong path for years -- but which can now be used as a chromatic unison-vector. kernel 2 3 5 7 11 ratio ~cents [-2 2 1 0 -1] = 45:44 38.9057732 [-5 2 2 -1 0] = 225:224 7.7115230 [-4 4 -1 0 0] = 81:80 21.5062896 [ 6 -2 0 -1 0] = 64:63 27.2640918 [-5 1 0 0 1] = 33:32 53.2729432 adjoint [12 -7 -2 7 12] [19 -11 -3 11 19] [28 -16 -5 16 28] [34 -20 -6 19 34] [41 -24 -7 24 42] determinant = | 1 | We still have the same two mappings to 12, as well as the one to -2 (which i don't understand). But this time, the mappings to 5 and 19 disappear and are replaced by two "diatonic" mappings to 7, which differ only in their mapping of prime-factor 7: the first one sends it to the 20th degree, which is a "7th", and the second sends it to the 19th degree, which is a "6th". Am i right about this? And the JI periodicity-block scale derived from this has only one note different from the one in my last post, and that is the "tritone", which is 64:45 here instead of 10:7 : triangular lattice: A E B 5:3------5:4-----15:8 / \ / \ / \ / \ / \ / \ / \ / \ / \ Eb Bb F C G D 32:27----16:9-----4:3-----1:1------3:2-----9:8 / \ / \ / / \ / \ / / \ / \ / Gb Db Ab 64:45----16:15----8:5 -monz
