Diatonic functional harmony: Difference between revisions

In octave equivalent tonal systems built from the high pitches to the low pitches, the '''superdominant''' takes over the usual roles of the subdominant, and in fact, in microtonal theories derived from [[Aura]]'s work, the subdominant and the superdominant are combined into the '''serviant''' (alternatively spelled '''servient''') function, since both the subdominant and the superdominant are considered to be generated by the tonic as the first 3-limit interval and indeed the first nontonic note in the "minoresque" direction.
