TONE COLOR and MELODY  In modern music, noise-like and percussive sounds are often used and instruments are often played at the very top or the very bottom of their register. Uncommon playing techniques have become normal.  In the 20th century, instruments are not place into strict groups. Usage of instruments are all up to the composer's whim. It may be as little as 1 person and it may be as much as one thousand  Melody is very vague in the 20th century. Composers advocated atonality ( non- melodic sort of composition )  Composers began to use new scales to base their melodies on which created new sounds.  Whole Tone Scale: divides the normal scale into six equal parts. All intervals between notes are the same size.

Bring on the dissonance!  In the 20th century music becomes more complex.  Harmony becomes more and more dissonant.  The change in the 20th century came when composers no longer felt that dissonant chords needed to have a resolution.  Music became so dissonant that Atonal music came to be. Atonal music is where no specific key could be determined either by reading or listening to the music.

Arnold Schoenberg  Born: September 13, 1874, Vienna Died: July 13, 1951, Los Angeles, California  Austrian composer. Schoenberg's development of the twelve-tone method of composition was a turning point in twentieth- century music  began his musical studies on violin at age 8  With his Suite for Piano, he began writing in a fully twelve-tone musical languageSuite for Piano

Igor Stravinsky  Born: June 17, 1882, Oranienbaum, Russia Died: April 6, 1971, New York  Came from a music family  Pianist and Conductor  Known for his rhythmic innovations to music  Wrote several important ballet’s: The Rite of Spring* and Firebird.The Rite of Spring* (*Start at 3 minutes)

Aaron Copland  Born: November 14, 1900, Brooklyn, New York Died: December 2, 1990, Tarrytown, New York  Copland began his study of music with piano lessons from his older sister  His early music mixes very modern musical ideas with hints of jazz influence  While Copland never abandoned the more adventurous style (including, later in his life, twelve-tone composition), he is best remembered, and justly so, for creating a truly American symphonic style as in Fanfare for the common man.Fanfare for the common man.

John Cage  Born: September 5, 1912, Los Angeles, California Died: August 12, 1992, New York  Cage was the son of an inventor  During this period his music is marked by strict, mathematically devised proportions of time. He filled these segments with new sounds, including different objects used as percussion (brake drums, for example), electronic sounds, and prepared piano (a piano with objects placed between the strings to modify pitch and timbre).  One of his greatest orchestral works is 4 minutes 33 seconds4 minutes 33 seconds
