Sistemul armonic ca indicator al formei muzicale (despre atitudinea de bază în analiza muzicii contemporane)
The Harmonic System as a Marker of Musical Form. (On the Basic Attitude in the Analysis of Contemporary Music)

Summary/Abstract: The study of works by contemporary composers should be based on an understanding of the regularities of harmonic material, taking into account its potential influence on musical form. The article proposes algorithms for analyzing various harmonic systems and provides a characterization of spectral–sonoristic harmony, the technique of harmonic centers, and the new tonal system as the least studied types of harmonic organization. Using G. Ciobanu’s composition “…Cette fois-ci à Paris” as an example, the author identifies features of atonal and new-tonal harmony, notes the presence of a hidden, directing tonic of a dissonant type, as well as leit-harmony and the technique of harmonic poles, which, together with diverse stylistic allusions, determine the specific dramaturgy and form of the work.
