Hi Noel, I have read Fux and others. Fux was writing before the emergence of equal temperament when modes were Ecclesiastical, before the major scale was a universal. I found it difficult and ultimately unconvincing - 'devil in musica' and all that.

The Romantics brought this on a notch, then Debussy, Jazz, Schoenberg and, I am sure you know....the twelve tones always available as a palette...

I guess I should have said something like 'codify dissonance pianistically', because that's what I am working on.
