Serialism

Serialism is a 20th century musical style that is based on the use of a series of musical elements, such as pitch, rhythm, and dynamics, that are arranged in a predetermined order. It is a form of atonal music, meaning that it does not adhere to any particular key or tonal center. Serialism is often associated with the works of composers such as Arnold Schoenberg, Anton Webern, and Alban Berg. Serialism is characterized by its use of twelve-tone technique, which involves the use of all twelve notes of the chromatic scale in a predetermined order. This technique is used to create a sense of unity and structure in the music. Serialism also often features complex rhythms and textures, as well as the use of extended techniques, such as microtones and aleatoric elements.
