PRJ Sokolich New Music Composition and Variation Techniques

[Philip Sokolich]

With my New Music Exact Temperament Tuning A = 384 and Transposition / Tuning to / from A = 256. The A = 256 Tuning inspired by Pythagoras, his 256 Tuning of his Monochord musical instrument. With Exact Temperament Tuning, all of the Pitches and Octaves of the Pitch Range are in 100% Proportion, Temperament, and Tune, the VST Music software instruments, from real musical instruments, sound absolutely awesome! Tune to A = 448, then Transpose the A to B for A = 384, to further Transpose, if you would, for A = 256. For VST instruments with no Master Tuning, use the 100% Free MTuner from MeldaProduction as an effect for your Digital Audio Workstation, add 8 for A = 448, then Transpose your Digital Audio Workstation music keyboard from highlighted music keyboard key from A to B for A = 384. My ideas Maintain and Further Music Composition and Variation Tradition. For your enjoyment and 100% free use of my New Music Composition and Variation Techniques, reference PRJSokolichNewMusic2025Page2.webstarts.com, summation of my New Music Theory and Composition, from my PRJSokolichNewMusic2025.webstarts.com, and PRJSokolichNewMusic2024.webstarts.com!

My many thanks to KVR Audio for so many awesome Music software reviews!

...you see, with my New Music websites above, with my Exact Temperament Tuning A = 384, including further Transposition / Tuning to / from A = 256, all of the Pitches and Octaves in 100% Proportion, Temperament, and Tune, you compose -/ compose variations / compose compositions of variations... in the whole Pitch Range, for Melodies in full harmonization as Chord Progressions -/ Harmonies with Pitches of the Melodies as 1-chord tones of the 135 chord form of the 7-tone Music Scales, you can listen to my production of the introduction to Bach Toccata and Fugue Notes to Chords, the 3 and 5 chord tones are 100% intact Transpositions for full harmonization AND chords of the 135 chord form, as for 12-Tone Transpositions of the first Notes of Music Melodies to / from the first notes of another Music Melody -/ Melodies for Transposition/s of the whole Melody -/ Melodies... in Sequences of Melodies, too... as for / from Transposition/s to / from / of Riffs -/ Hooks -/ Cadences / Canons / Modes / Keys / Segues / Introductions / Movements / Finales! Enjoy my New Music websites!

I'm not sure yet whether the new site is an improvement over the pre covid versions.

And according to my calculations, if you go down two semitones from 448 Hz, then you land on 399 Hz. Your precious 384 Hz is another 33 cents lower. But you can land at 385 Hz with whole semitones when you first tune down 8 Hz from 440 Hz to 432 Hz.

But whatever... have fun!

Im not sure if the cut-and-paste text and new user account are an improvment over their pre-covid versions either.

The A = 256 Tuning inspired by Pythagoras, his 256 Tuning of his Monochord musical instrument.

That Pythagoras was well ahead of his time: defining Hz a couple of thousand years early.

yeah, i'd noticed that one. Good to know Pythagoras invented the 8-bit tuner.
but i got wary of engaging, there's an awful lot of, erm, 'character' in them thar webpages, in amongst the blocks of massive near-repetition. like a feisty 2012 opinion on why russian nuclear weapon scientists were the best nuclear weapon scientists, for example. or mention of some sort of 'unique' diamond and platinum jewellery featurung with the letters of their name. and stuff about providing HD microscopy for audio for forensic medicine that 'sees all reality.' Its a unique perspective on, erm, something.

I am very happy many remember, saving, my earlier New Music Websites! I would say the big wrap up with my Page2 2025 Website Maintains and Furthers Tradition, and, with another entry soon, there will be more detail, detail I did not write with because I was willfully writing during the earlier years from the point of view from where Music Composition was, and VST before VST Master Tuning existed. If you remember/saved my Websites from 1997 and after, remember my quotes from 1985 - 1988, "Octaves in Proportion, Temperament, and Tune.". The improvement to Music Composition with all of the Pitches and Octaves in 100% Proportion, Temperament, and Tune, my Exact Temperament Tuning from Equal Temperament, is the ability to Compose Music and Music Variations within full Pitch Range for more Music. As you are aware, frequency Tunings for Pitches with 2 : 1 and 1 : 2 Pitch Proportions from Pythagoras for A = 384 and the Transposition / Tuning from A = 384 for A = 256, calculate correctly with 2 : 1 and 1 : 2 Proportions for 12-Tone Octaves for the frequencies, A = 384 is up from lowest A = 3, then A = 6... 12... 24... 48... 96... 192... 384... and so on, and, A = 256 is up from lowest A = 1, then A = 2... A = 4... A = 8... A = 16... A = 32... A = 64... A = 128... A = 256... and so on. As I wrote online for my New Music Websites, an appropriate use of an old expression, "...all the best, always!" As for inappropriate and untrue replies, better reviews, if you please, to disallow inappropriate, untrue replies not even relevant to Music.

...as you see, Pitches and Octaves in Perfect 2 : 1 and 1 : 2 Proportion one after another from A = 1 for A = 256, and from A = 3 for A = 384, Tuned, and Transposed / Tuned, as follows, of 12-Tone Octaves, A = 3 in 1 : 2 Proportion becomes, in higher Octaves, A = 6, A = 12, A = 24, and, from A = 12, and after, whole numbers of the 12 Tones of the Octaves, as A = 12, A # / B b = 13, B = 14, B # / C b = 15, C # / D b = 16, D = 17, D # / E b = 18, E = 19, F = 20, F # / G b = 21, G = 22, G # / A b = 23, A = 24... then, with 1 : 2 Proportion, you double the frequencies for every higher Octave, and, with 2 : 1 Proportion, halve frequencies for every lower Octave... then, Transpose / Tune A to B, A = 448, up from A = 224... A = 112... A = 56... A = 28... A = 14... , and, after Transposition / Tuning, A = 384 is up from A = 192... A = 96... A = 48... A = 24... , and for all of the frequencies of the 12-Tone Octaves, Perfect, 100% Proportion, Temperament, and Tune of all of the Pitches and Octaves to Tune, and to Transpose / Tune, manually, with custom Tuning Forks, custom improved versions of musical instruments, bridges on String instruments, your fingers with String instruments... and VST Master Tuning for Electronic Tuning. Thank you! ...all the best, always! The pleasure is mine. As you see from my writings above, I am an older man, yet, as you are aware, Musicians, Composers, Arrangers, and Musicologists become better when older.

well now im interested!

...you seem to miss the obvious point of the obvious facts from Ancient Greek Philosophies of the Ancient Greek Atomists, Aristotle on Physics, Plato on inaudible Music of the Spheres, Art and Poetry as Imitation of Reality, Thales and many others about Substances and Essences of Reality, Plato and others about Physical Things from Metaphysical Forms, and from Ideas as Forms of Things... you are aware of the fact these Ancient Greek Philosophers still form our Modern Branches of Mathematics, Physics, Physical Sciences, and Natural Sciences in many Countries of the World.

But what about the Composition and Variation Techniques you promised? Actual New Music? Something else than a de/retuned carillion imitating Big Ben's Ding Dong Ding Dong?

You sound exactly like Oprah Winfrey.
She always says: after the break we're going to talk about [subject].
But no, the blah blah goes on and on, but never really about [subject].

If Sokolich is useful it should be added here
www.rollingball.com/TemperamentsFrames.htm
- note it's http site so might have to pass security stuff in browser and confirm stuff

and presented in the same way, very useful for those interested in tunings and temperaments.
- you see deviations thirds have in major and minor or whatever you want to avoid

You can pick tunings according to the harmonic beatings you want or not, if to be insensitive to which key you are writing etc.
- since I hated the Yamaha DP:s tunings and how they sound I used own tunings
- with Kawai the stretch tunings are there to address harmonic beating within reason so not needed for me now

Personally I see not reason to withdraw from 440 Hz, just complicates life and music....Hz is Hz and divides either way you make your temperament equally....you just change the key you are writing in to higher or lower....
