:::::::::::::: Looks like the so-called "purists" in the Music Theory department really were wrong about the IVM-VM-IM after all. Still, the usage of the IIm-VM-IM cadence does have serious merits- especially in an Ionian circle progression containing the final cadence. --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 01:15, 6 January 2021 (UTC)

:::::::::::::: Now, as I'm looking over the counterpoint rules [[Wikipedia:Counterpoint|as listed on Wikipedia]], the only rule I can think of that I can flout for sure is rule six- building from the bass upwards- and that courtesy of the existence of Treble-Down Tonality, which requires the reverse direction construction for sections that use it. --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 02:37, 6 January 2021 (UTC)

:: I know this may sound hard to believe, but in all my experimenting with different intervals, I've found that the wrong kind of interval involving small-number-ratios between the wrong two notes actually works against the formation of a sense of tonality. Conversely, a more tense-sounding interval in the right location- yes, even if the interval in question happens to be [[40/27]]- can actually strengthen your sense of tonality. Yes, intervals with small-number-ratios are vital to establishing tonality, but because of their power, they have to be well-placed within the tonal system, or otherwise the sense of tonality shifts when you don't want it to. --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 04:50, 13 December 2020 (UTC)
