Twelve Tone Technique - Music Composition

The video tutorial explains serialism, a music composition technique developed by the Second Viennese School, led by Schoenberg. It emerged as a response to the breakdown of the major-minor system around 1900. Serialism involves organizing 12 chromatic notes in a chosen order, known as a tone row, which can be manipulated through retrograde, inversion, and transposition. The tutorial demonstrates how to create and use a tone row in composition, highlighting its creative potential despite its perceived rigidity and dissonance.
