Among his many pedagogical contributions, Guido adapted and synthesized elements of numerous notational practices in order to formulate a standardized notational system. 990–1050) for this all-important development. Many notation traditions and practices evolved in early Western music: there was no uniform practice as to how sound in music was notated.įrom this early use as a memory device, notational practice evolved over time toward a standardized system of notation and, more importantly, toward an exact system of tone placement. Rather, a system of mnemonic symbols called neumes gave only an approximate indication of where tones sounded in relationship to one another in terms of relative highness or lowness. In early music sound or tone was not precisely notated. In this chapter we shall explore how tone is represented in music.
Aspects of rhythm and rhythmic notation, meter, and basic formal organization were discussed. In Chapter 1 "The Elements of Rhythm: Sound, Symbol, and Time" we discovered how music is organized temporally and how that temporal organization is symbolized in written notation.
