Bridging from Diatonic Writing to the Intervals
About this episode
Frank explores the challenges composers face in applying intervallic thinking and offers a perspective shift to bridge diatonic writing with interval structures.
https://www.skool.com/circle-of-interval-magicians/about In this episode, Frank explores why many composers struggle to apply intervallic thinking in their music and how a simple shift in perspective can solve the problem. Instead of forcing interval techniques into an existing tonal system, composers can look for areas where both systems naturally overlap. Using a C major triad as an example, Frank demonstrates how scaling interval structures can create fresh harmonic colors while staying connected to familiar tonal foundations.
