The Tritonet Approach to Music Theory

“Music” is the sum of all vibrations that are believed to have been created by an intelligence over a certain time period. “Harmony”, on the other hand, is the evaluation of the relationships between vibrations in terms of consonance and dissonance.

Music Harmony training is an essential study programme that requires effort and lasts a number of years at music schools. During this period, students are taught the dualities of tonal harmony. However, this training focuses only on the musical aesthetics prevalent in Europe during the 18th century. As such, the methods employed during and after the 20th century are impossible to identify.

Tritonet is a method of music harmony training that provides a new perspective on duality by introducing various middle points. Purely based on a sense of direction, it allows unique personal musical language to be developed from an early age. Based on a tradition that is over 3000 years old, Tritonet not only pays homage to the human past by identifying the harmonic relationships in the Circle of Fifths, but also looks towards the future with ResTens and Cyclic Music.

Learning Tritonet not helps in music composition; it also allows one to develop a way of thinking about “Harmony”, and provides more conscious decisions by considering the contradictions of assets.
