THE DUAL NATURE OF SOUND AS RAW MATERIAL OF MUSIC
The research and observation of the sound nature is the main objective of this article, since that is the raw material of music. Wouldn’t it be desirable for most research of music theory to have the nature of sound as the basis of its study? Would it not be a more powerful and objective tool, if we learn the creative and subjective fact which is music, through the relationships and structures derived from sound that obey natural and objective laws? My research and conclusions are based on the study of the natural harmonic series of sound. The Fundamental natural series is the main conclusion. Sound has a dual nature that best explains musical relationships.
