Title is a Misnomer
editTone is "any sound considered with reference to its quality, pitch, strength, or source." Post-tonal theory is therefore applicable only to silence. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.25.13.90 (talk) 17:36, 14 December 2013 (UTC)
No it isn't. Tonality is the familiar musical language of major and minor keys, a means of organizing pitch in accordance with the physics of sound. A fundamental tone — say, C in a C major scale — is central; the other pitches relate to it in a hierarchy of importance based on natural overtone relationships. Whatever happens, the music keeps returning to that fundamental tonal mooring.--Gueux de mer (talk) 09:02, 1 March 2019 (UTC)
