That's all there is to it. read more...

Tonality is the one element that ties all the different styles of music together - jazz, classical, country, rock, YOU NAME IT! Slow or fast, loud or soft, a symphony or a single instrument, tonality is what's at the at the very center of all 'popular' music in western culture.
