About: Secundal

An Entity of Type: organisation, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

In music or music theory, secundal is the quality of a chord made from seconds, and anything related to things constructed from seconds such as counterpoint. Secundal chords are often called tone clusters more generally, especially when non-diatonic. "[Any] three or more pitches in secundal relationship may correctly be referred to as a tone cluster." Chords which may be considered as built from sevenths, because of musical inversion, are secundal. Polychords may create secundal chords.
