Tonal and Modal pitch remapping in Opusmodus
This course explores advanced techniques for transforming melodic and harmonic material through tonal and modal pitch remapping in Opusmodus. Instead of traditional transposition, pitch structures are dynamically reinterpreted within new tonal or modal frameworks, allowing composers to reshape musical material while preserving its structural identity. Through practical examples and algorithmic workflows, you will learn how to remap pitch collections, adapt melodic lines to different modal environments, and generate harmonic variations while maintaining coherent voice-leading. The course demonstrates how these techniques can be integrated into generative and process-based composition. Designed for composers interested in algorithmic thinking, this course provides powerful tools to manipulate pitch structures and create rich transformations from a single musical idea.
