In this section, progressions will be in the same direction throughout each example.
We have chosen to do them all with flattening progressions in the Diatonic Major Mode,
but they could just as well have sharpening progressions in the Diatonic Minor Moce.
14pse Metamorphoses = 4-1 throughout, except the last bar. Chord Symbols = C6Am7- Dm7/ G6Em7- Am7/ Dm6Bm7-5- Em7/ Am-6F+7- Bm7-5/ Em-6C+7- F+7/ Bm-6-5G7- C+7/ F6Dm7- G7/ C, seeMetamorphoses We have here a complete circle, with normal sharpening strides of 1 fifth at
each bar, the Metamorphosis 4 sharpening 2 fifths and the Metamorphosis 1 flattenig
1 fifth, with flattening progressions throughout. Voice-leading = C within the bar and A across the bar-line, except the last. Performance Disposition =Primary Disposition across the odd-numbered bar-lines, andSecondary Disposition across the even-numbered bar-lines, the entire circle in a comfortable high range. CadentialEnding on the last chord. Orbit Lines - in the Soprano Voice -12-3/21-10/30-01/03-2/12-3/21-10/30-01/1, in the Alto Voice -03-2/12-3/21-10/30-01/03-2/12-3/21-10/0, in the Tenor Voice -30-01/03-2/12-3/21-10/30-01/03-2/12-3/2, in the Bass Voice -21-10/30-01/03-2/12-3/21-10/30-01/03-2/1. The 4 Performance Voices (SATB) are in orbital and melodic canon, at a 2-chord (1-bar)
interval, all in the same direction.
14spe The same Metamorphoses, Chord Symbols, Voice-leading, and Orbit Lines. Performance Disposition =Secondary Disposition across the odd-numbered bar-lines, andPrimary Disposition across the even-numbered bar-lines, the entire circle in a comfortable low range, with a CadentialEnding. The same canonic relationships as above, but, in this case, in the order BTAS.
144pse Metamorphoses = 4-4-1 throughout, except the last bar. Chord Symbols =C6Am7- Dm6Bm7-5- Em7/ Am-6F+7- Bm-6-5G7- C+7/ F6Dm7- G6Em7- Am7/ Dm6Bm7-5- Em-6C+7- F+7/ Bm-6-5G7- C6Am7- Dm7/ G6Em7- Am-6F+7- Bm7-5/ Em-6C+7- F6Dm7- G7/ C, seeMetamorphoses We have here a complete circle, three in fact, with giant sharpening strides
of 3 fifths at each bar, the 2 Metamorphoses 4 sharpening 4 fifths and the Metamorphoses 1 flattenig
1 fifth, with flattening progressions throughout. Voice-leading = C between beats 2 and 3, A between beats 1 and 2 and across the bar-line,
except the last. Performance Disposition =Primary Disposition across and following the odd-numbered bar-lines, andSecondary Disposition across and following the even-numbered bar-lines, the entire circle in a low and extended range, more suitable to instrumental
performance. with possible vocal performance a tone higher, in D. CadentialEnding on the last chord. Orbit Lines - in the Soprano Voice -30-30-01/03-21-10/30-30-01/03-21-10/30-30-01/03-21-10/30-30-01/1, in the Alto Voice -03-21-10/30-30-01/03-21-10/30-30-01/03-21-10/30-30-01/03-21-10/0, in the Tenor Voice -12-12-3/21-03-2/12-12-3/21-03-2/12-12-3/21-03-2/12-12-3/2, in the Bass Voice -21-03-2/12-12-3/21-03-2/12-12-3/21-03-2/12-12-3/21-03-2/1. The 4 Performance Voices are divided into 2 groups - the Soprano and Alto Voices are in orbital and melodic canon, at a 3-chord (1-bar)
interval, and the Tenor and Bass Voices are also in orbital and melodic canon, at a 3-chord
(1-bar) interval.
144spe The same Metamorphoses, Chord Symbols, Voice-leading, and Orbit Lines. Performance Disposition =Primary Disposition across the odd-numbered bar-lines, andSecondary Disposition across the even-numbered bar-lines, the entire circle in a high and extended range, more suitable to instrumental
performance, with possible vocal performance a third lower, in Ab. CadentialEnding on the last chord. The same canonic relationships as above, but, in this case, with Orbit Lines inversed.
114pce Metamorphoses = ((4-1-1 / 4-1-1)) Chord Symbols = ((C6Am7- Dm7- G7/ C6Am7- Dm7- G7)) C, seeMetamorphoses We have here a curious mixture of Swing and Circle, in which - we move from C to Am with a Metamorphosis 4, and back to C with 2 progressions (plus Metamorphosis 1), a kind of
Swing, but with only flattening progressions, as in a Circle. Voice-leading = C twice within each bar and A across the bar-lines, except the last. Performance Disposition =Primary Disposition throughout the entire canon in a high range. Complete Harmony when the last chord is not used, CadentialEnding when the last chord is used. Orbit Lines - in the Soprano Voice - ((03-2-3/21-10-01))1, in the Alto Voice - ((30-01-10/30-01-10))0, in the Tenor Voice - ((21-10-01/03-2-3))2, in the Bass Voice - ((12-3-2/12-3-2))1. The 4 Performance Voices are divided into 2 groups - Soprano and Tenor Voices are in orbital and melodic canon at a 3-chord (1-bar)
interval, the Alto and Bass Voices act individually, each in orbital canon with itself,
at a 3-chord (1-bar) interval.
114sce The same Metamorphoses, Chord Symbols, Voice-leading, and Orbit Lines. Performance Disposition =Secondary Disposition throughout the entire canon in a lower medium range. Complete Harmony when the last chord is not used, CadentialEnding when the last chord is used. The 4 Performance Voices are divided into 2 groups - Alto and Bass Voices are in orbital and melodic canon at a 3-chord (1-bar) interval, the Soprano and Tenor Voices act individually, each in orbital canon with itself,
at a 3-chord (1-bar) interval.
1144pe Metamorphoses = 4-4-1 / 1-4-4-1 / 1-4-4-1 / 1-4-0-0 / Chord Symbols = C6Am7- Dm6Bm7-5- Em7/ Am7- Dm6Bm7-5- Em-6C+7- F+7/ Bm7-5- Em-6C+7- F6Dm7- G7/ C, seeMetamorphoses. We have here another complete circle, actually 2, with giant sharpening strides of 2 fifths at each Metamorphosis 4, the 2 following Metamorphoses 1 normal flattening steps at the end and beginning
of each bar. Voice-leading = A -A-C-C throughout Performance Disposition =Primary Disposition throughout the entire circle in a comfortable low range. CadentialEnding on the last chord. Orbit Lines - in the Soprano Voice -21-03-2/3-21-03-2/03-21-03-2/1, in the Alto Voice -12-12-3/2-12-12-3/2-12-12-3/2, in the Tenor Voice -03-21-10/01-03-21-10/01-03-21-10/0, in the Bass Voice -30-30-01/10-30-30-01/10-30-30-01/1. The 4 Performance Voices act individually, each in orbital and melodic canon with itself at a 4-chord (1-bar) interval.
1144se The same Metamorphoses, Chord Symbols, Voice-leading, Orbit Lines, CadentialEnding, and canons. Performance Disposition =Secondary Disposition throughout the entire canon in a comfortable high range.
