Publisher's Synopsis
Dissonant Harmony: A New Principle Of Musical And Social Organization is a book written by the philosopher and musician Dane Rudhyar. The book explores the idea of dissonance in music and how it can be used to create a new principle of musical and social organization. Rudhyar argues that dissonance, which is traditionally seen as a negative aspect of music, can actually be used to create a more complex and harmonious sound. He also suggests that this idea can be applied to society, where dissonance can be used to create a more diverse and inclusive community. The book includes discussions of music theory, philosophy, and social theory, and is intended for readers with an interest in music, philosophy, and cultural studies.THIS 34 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Rudhyar Collection of Seed Ideas, by D.
