Play(helpinfo)Hindemith[edit]

Fourth and fifth writing in the second movement of Paul Hindemith'sMathis der MalerHindemith constructed large parts of his symphonic workSymphony: Mathis der Malerby means of fourth and fifth intervals. These steps are a restructuring of fourth chords (C D G becomes the fourth chord D G C), or other mixtures of fourths and fifths (D A D G Cin measure 3 of the example). Hindemith was, however, not a proponent of an explicit quartal harmony. In his 1937 writingUnterweisung im Tonsatz(The Craft of Musical Composition,Hindemith 1937), he wrote that "notes have a family of relationships, that are the bindings of tonality, in which the ranking of intervals is unambiguous," so much so, indeed, that in the art of triadic composition "...the musician is bound by this, as the painter to his primary colours, the architect to the three dimensions." He lined up the harmonic and melodic aspects of music in a row in which the octave ranks first, then the fifth and the third, and then the fourth. "The strongest and most unique harmonic interval after the octave is the fifth, the prettiest nevertheless is the third by right of the chordal effects of itsCombination tones."
