| contents | <p><em>Harmonic Musical Systems</em> (HMS) is a theoretical–systematic treatise devoted to the formulation of abstract harmonic frameworks conceived independently of historical styles, tonal languages, or specific repertoires. The work proposes a formal construction of harmonic systems based on internal relations, combinatorial structures, and organizational principles that allow for the generation, analysis, and projection of multiple musical configurations.</p> <p>The aim of HMS is not to describe existing harmonic practices, but to establish a conceptual infrastructure from which diverse musical languages may be developed. In this sense, the work operates at a foundational level: it defines elements, relationships, and operations that constitute coherent, open, and formalizable harmonic systems, without presupposing traditional categories such as tonality, modality, or historically derived functionality.</p> <p>The work was originally conceived as an autonomous systemic construction, oriented toward operability and internal coherence. Subsequent research, including <em>Abstraction of Consonance</em>, develops an epistemological reflection on some of the principles implicit in HMS, providing conceptual and theoretical clarification that complements—without conditioning—the original formulation of the system.</p> <p>Taken as a whole, <em>Harmonic Musical Systems</em> is presented as a contribution addressed to both theoretical research and compositional practice, offering an abstract framework that may be applied, expanded, and reinterpreted within different contemporary musical contexts.</p> |
