Abstract

This paper explores Jack Douthett's model of dynamical voice leading on the level of harmonic states. It investigates global contiguous and stroboscopic dynamical systems on the entire state space and introduces a measure of effectiveness for the trajectories under consideration. Special attention is paid to the harmonic state spaces behind second-order Clough-Myerson scales, such as diatonic triads and seventh chords. Finally, a set of trajectories as a tiling of exemplifies the connection with the Spectral Conjecture.
