  1. Musical Tonality • Existence of multiple tonalities raises a variety of questions • What is the relation of one tonality to another? • Can we measure relatedness? • How do we represent relatedness? • Questions regarding perception of tonality • How do we find our sense of key? • Are we accurate in sense of key? • What models do we have for determining key?

  2. Theoretical Maps of Interkey Distances • Are there ways of deriving interkey distances? • Put differently, can we determine key maps? • Key distance an important issue in music-theoretic descriptions of tonal music because of key modulation • Musical composition written in home key • Compositions move to other keys, or modulate • Usually return to home key • Practice codified in interkey distances – key distances considered close if modulations are frequent

  3. Interkey Distances The Circle of Fifths

  4. Interkey Distances, con’t Diatonic set overlaps

  5. Interkey Distances, con’t Diatonic set overlaps • The problem of minor keys • Different forms of the minor • Relation between the major and minor keys • The Relative Minor (C major and A minor) • Identical scale degrees • C Major: C D E F G A B • A Minor: A B C D E F G • The Parallel Minor (C major and C minor) • Common tonic and 5th scale degree • C Major: C D E F G A B • C Minor: C D Eb F G Ab B

  7. Interkey Distances, con’t Interkey correlations

  8. Interkey Distances, con’t Interkey correlations, graphed

  9. Interkey Distances, con’t Krumhansl & Kessler (1982) Multidimensional scaling solution

  10. Interkey Distances, con’t The four-dimensional torus

  11. Interkey Distances, con’t Krumhansl & Kessler (1982) Map of key space

  12. Interkey Distances, con’t Schoenberg (1954/1969) Chart of key distance

  13. Interkey Distances, con’t Werts (1983) • Analyzed key progressions between compositions • Expressed as movement from one key to neighboring keys • Produced a multidimensional scaling solution based on number of times keys moved from one to another • Similar to MDS solution just seen
