    02 - The Evil of the Ring

    Terminology:Augmented Second - An interval between the first and second note of a typical Major scale that has the second note raised by one half-step higher than it naturally appears.Double Reed Instrument - An instrument in which two pieces of cane vibrating against each other create the sound/resonance.Doublings - The same notes are played by multiple instruments across the orchestra to increase weight, size, and presence.Half-Step - The smallest distance from one note to the next on a piano, guitar, or other western instruments.Rhaita - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Svc-8DBCIPs&list=RDSvc-8DBCIPs&

  12. 3

    01 - The History of the Ring

    Terminology:Minor-moded -Built on a musical language or distances between notes that naturally sounds somber, reflective, or mournful rather than bright or triumphant.Minor triad - Three notes played together that, because of the ratios of distance between them, form the emotional core of a sad or serious sound.Raised fourth - A raised fourth is a note that sits just outside of the typical “expected” harmony, creating a subtle sense of tension and unease.Two harmonic regions at once - This means the music briefly suggests two different emotional or tonal “places” at the same time instead of committing to one.A Minor and F Minor - Examples of collections of 7 different notes that, because of the distances between each note in sequence, result in a more sombre, sad, or melancholy tone.A♭ (enharmonic relationship) - This refers to a pitch that is technically the same sound as another note but spelled differently to allow for written clarity in the music.Added ninth - An extra note layered onto a chord that often is characterized as softening the sound without fully resolving the tension beneath it.https://jordanrannells.comhttps://www.patreon.com/c/Alongexpectedsoundscape
