The dissertation identifies three types of tonality:
scalicfmodal, melodic, and harmonic. Scalic/modal
tonality and melodic tonality are known to have been
existent in Antiquity. Messiaen adheres to these
ancient types of tonality and also harmonic tonality.
Messiaen uses these types of tonality in his own
combinations -- his concept of tonality is revealed
to be highly complex. / Musicology / M.Mus. (Musicology)
