::::: On the contrary, tonal harmony developed from modal harmony, so the idea of Treble-Down Tonality is in some ways just a similar innovation stemming from the more authentic forms of the Ancient Greek modes as opposed to their Romanized equivalents. --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 08:38, 24 December 2020 (UTC)

::::: Did I mention that my ideas as to how the the Diatonic "modes" function as tonalities of their own were based in no small part from their more traditional modal harmonies?  Indeed, I consider each of the traditional diatonic modes as having the potential to give rise to their own form of tonality. --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 08:47, 24 December 2020 (UTC)

::: Treble-Down Tonality actually flips the diatonic functional hierarchy upside down so that the note located a perfect fourth ''below'' the Tonic becomes the Dominant, and swaps the relations among other notes in the same, mirrored fashion, which has the effect of producing backwards-sounding chord progressions.  Moreover, as Bass-Up Tonality has strong connections to the Overtone Series, Treble-Down Tonality has the same connections with the Undertone Series.  Furthermore, it also inverts the musical roles of the treble and bass, meaning that harmony is very likely to located up in the higher octaves and basically hangs off the highest note in the chord, while melody is likely to be down in the lower octaves.  One thing to note is that neither Treble-Down Tonality nor the more familiar Bass-Up Tonality like dissonance in close proximity to their respective chord roots.  However, since the chord roots are located up high in Treble-Down Tonality, that means that the more dissonant intervals are likely to be found down low.  I'll have to try and incorporate some of this into a song I'm reworking called "Welcome to Dystopia". --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 08:20, 24 December 2020 (UTC)

::: Now, everyone knows about Major and Minor from Bass-Up Tonality, but in Treble-Down Tonality, their counterparts are Antimajor and Antiminor respectively.  Just wait until we get into the Treble-Down Diatonic Modes- if there are 35 Bass-Up Diatonic Modes due to different tunings, there are also 35 Treble-Down Diatonic modes for exactly the same reason, making 70 diatonic modes in all, and that's just the variants generated by my kind of tuning. --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 08:32, 24 December 2020 (UTC)
