From a Living Tradition to the Theory: Comments on the Origin of the Term ‘Zahušťování’ in Janáček’s Terminology
Procházková, Jarmila
The contribution of Czech composer Leoš Janáček (1854–1928) to music theory has been appreciated especially in the field of harmony. Within the context of music theory, Janáček's ideas on the 'thickness' of harmonic material first appeared in his study O skladbě souzvukův a jejich spojův (On the Construction of Chords and their Connections) in 1896. The term became fully developed and frequently used in his Úplná nauka o harmonii (The Complete Harmony Theory) in 1920. The origin and the use of the term by Janáček can be documented in connection with his experience with and discoveries from traditional folk music.
