    Pandiatonicism is a musical technique that uses the notes of a scale, such as a major scale or diatonic mode, in non-traditional ways. Any notes from the prevailing scale can be combined as long as it sounds pleasing, and chords are typically tertian with minimal chromaticism. Common types of pandiatonic techniques include using unconventional scale arrangements, tall or added note chords, chordal ostinati, and two streams of alternating chords resulting in polychords. The document provides examples and exercises for students to analyze pandiatonicism in music and compose short pieces using the technique.

    Pandiatonicism

    I. Pandiatonic (freely diatonic) music uses traditional scalar materials, but in somewhat nontraditional ways. In this technique any note of the prevailing scalemost often simply a major scale or diatonic modemay be combined with any other notes of that scale if the result is pleasing to the composer. Any kind of chord construction may be used, although tertian sonorities are most typical. Tritone relationships are usually avoided, and chromaticism is minimal. The key is firmly established. The most common types of pandiatonic use follow. A. The composer may use nontraditional arrangements of scalar notes; chords can be understood as tall chords, added note chords, or suspensive chords.

    B. The composer may use tall or additive tertian sonorities, often associated with pedal effects and typically dominant.

    C. The composer may use chordal ostinato effects, usually involving alternation of two or three chords.

    D. The composer may use two contrapuntal streams of chords, often resulting in a polychordal sound (see Part IV, Unit 9).

    II. Suggestions for class discussion. A. Analyze the examples as discussed in paragraph I. B. Analyze the examples in Unit 32 of Music for Analysis. Students may bring additional examples from the literature into class. C. Suggested reading (see the Bibliography): Dallin, Persichetti, Reti, Ulehla.

    6. Harmonize the following using a pandiatonic idiom. Strive for an effective accompanimental pattern, possibly an ostinato. Experiment with a variety of devices such as added notes, interior pedal points, and so forth. This may be written for piano or instruments available in class.
