What about free jazz ? Some sounds tonal then moves to atonal (at least it seems), some are definitively atonal.

Krysztof Penderecki
Symphony No 3
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i_a2pfwKjIY
(There is Passacaglia, it was used in film Shutter Island)
Polymorfia
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9mYFKJB ... mYFKJBgxbM
If you never listen this, try listen full composition.
Maybe similar to Threnody, but for me Polymorphia is much better.
Giacinto Scelsi (his compositions are like dark ambient)
Elohim

Yeah, I was hearing some Sonny Sharrock and some Blood Ulmer, and they'll go total blues and back out.rp314 wrote:For quite a few Free means exactly that.stanlea wrote:What about free jazz ? Some sounds tonal then moves to atonal (at least it seems), some are definitively atonal.
