Using Schemas to Compose Music - Music Composition
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 чер 2024
- During the 18th century particular harmonic progressions were devised known as Schemas. The various Schemas offered composers melodic and chord progressions that were useful patterns for opening or closing a piece of music or for modulating, for example. We explore examples of Schemas during this video that offer ongoing opportunities for tonal composers today.

Thanks for examining Music Schema, Gareth!
A pleasure
I studied music at college and I’ve never heard of this term before. Thanks for the insight
Certainly worth studying
That's because most music teachers are generally ignorant people who don't know how to think very well, lack the ability to analyze concepts, and who are not at all familiar with highly important abstractions and ideas. However, not all music teachers are so ignorant and stupid.
Found a website with a pdf of some other schemas divided by application and 'Partimenti Prototypes' in a search engine will find it. What an interesting subject.
Very interesting
Can you share the website with us?
😀
Gareth has many videos discussing schemas and giving many examples. I’ve used them in practice, transposing them into other keys. My piano teacher encourages me to continue.
I've recently started studying Partimento and schemas with my instructor and it's been eye opening. I feel like it's a great tool for efficiently composing sections of a piece by focusing on textures instead of individual notes. I especially like the schemas that gradually walk up or down the scale, such as the Romanesca, since they can help gradually modulate to interesting new keys.
Absolutely
Your videos are pure gold
A pleasure. Much more at www.mmcourses.co.uk
Thank you so much for the interesting subject you explained it clearly.
Glad it’s helpful. Much more at www.mmcourses.co.uk
First I've heard of this Gareth, thank you, very interesting 😀
Glad it’s useful.
Fascinating! I'd never heard of schema. The modulating Prinner seems like it could be really useful. That was an imperceptible transition.
Yes. They’re useful
Fascinating! First example schema: Mozart Jupiter symphony,
😀
Excellent video!
Glad it’s helpful. See www.mmcourses.co.uk for much more.
Merci beaucoup.
There's a music store in the North West called Music Matters!
😀
Got the feel of schema❤
Glad it’s helpful. Much more at www.mmcourses.co.uk
So in that first example, it’s okay for the leading tone to ignore going to C because it leaps up a fifth?
Absolutely
Sir, is VIIb - I a cadence? If yes, what type of cadence is that?
Officially no but VIIb is a replacement for V7 so it effectively acts as a perfect cadence.
Schemas vs Partimento?
Good question. Both useful and of course related. We could cover the latter.
Partimento is a bass line, sometimes with figured bass, mostly used as harmony exercises.
The sooner music academia discards roman numerals as useless misinformation, and returns to the true method of composing, using figured bass and partimento, the better.
That’s a view shared by some others.
Never heard of a partimento. (I'm not in music school.)
@@edubs9828 that is the irony: the true authentic method is not even known, not even in music school. Instead the made-up non-working method is taught instead of inversions and chords named by roots. Exactly opposite of what CPE Bach himself and all others state quite plainly.
Then again, figured bass struggles to notate complex chords involving b9ths, 13ths, and so on.
Why not have both? Think outside the box of one or the other. Politics has the same problem.
Isn't a Schema a type of rash / Dermatitis ? I went from Broke-style to Destitute. I think that Taylor Swift is popular in writing Period pieces... - okay, a chuckle for the day...
