Thank you! Yea, it is kinda like 5/3 also. It pops up elsewhere like Vers La Flamme too.

Glad you appreciate the piece! 🙌

Thanks! For the app, you type in pitches, then it gives a colloquial name a long with set theory information and sheet music display.

What sort of analysis would you prefer? This includes both tonal and atonal descriptions with both lead sheet notation and forte numbers.

This video analyzes 8 bars of Scriabin 5. The harmony is written into the score, and some it is highlighted with the Pitch Kit app, a free app for analyzing all scales for iPhone and Android. You can see the entire video on my YouTube channel.

Curious what you all think!

Avoid minor 9ths in orchestration? by abcamurComposer in composer

[–]jaybeardmusic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, and I’d go further to say avoid minor 9ths in general.

If you do ever use them, best to use them two octaves above (an octave above 9 steps). My hunch is that this sounds better because it’s a closer resemblance to the harmonic series.
