Re: Chords (was Adrenalinn)



Title: RE: Chords (was Adrenalinn)
are you referring to music such as perotin or gesualdo (a bit later)?  in those instances, the composer may have focused less on the outcome but wouldn't the "lines/counterpoint" still be a function of the harmony, although it may be incidental.
 
i have a hard time believing that the end result (i.e. the harmony) was happen-stance, not that i disagree with anything that's been said; rather, personally i have a difficult time understanding writing a "line" that doesn't take into consideration the "chord" it forms with other instruments playing different "lines".
 
i may be going nowhere with this.  if so, please forgive.
