Abstract: Muestra el uso de estructuras armónicas complejas en la composición musical, haciendo énfasis en su potencial para la expresión y la forma musical. Las estructuras armónicas complejas, como los poliacordes, han jugado un papel importante en el desarrollo de la música clásica contemporánea. Los compositores las han utilizado, algunos más que otros, de muchas maneras, pero aún no se ha formado una teoría estándar de su uso, a pesar de las menciones ocasionales de un puñado de autores. Este trabajo analiza el uso de estas y otras estructuras armónicas complejas en extractos de piezas de compositores relevantes y las compara con ejemplos de las piezas que aparecen en el portafolio adjunto. El análisis muestra su potencial no solo como un medio para delinear eficazmente el desarrollo de la armonía, sino también como un medio de expresión y definición de la forma musical. También se sugieren algunas estrategias, herramientas y puntos de vista para el análisis, que pueden ser útiles para su estudio y aplicación.
Complex harmonic structures, such as polychords, have played an important role in the development of contemporary classical music. Composers have used them—some more than others—in many ways but a standard theory of their use has yet to be formed, despite occasional mentions from a handful of authors. This commentary discusses the use of these and other complex harmonic structures in excerpts from relevant composers’ pieces and compares them to examples of the pieces featured in the attached portfolio. The analysis shows their potential not only as a means to effectively delineate the development of harmony, but also as a means of expression and definition of musical form. Some strategies, tools and points of view for the analysis are also suggested, which may be useful for their study and application.
