Harmonic Analysis in Music
Harmonic analysis is the computational study of chord progressions, harmonic function, and tonal relationships in music. Formalized for audio by Pardo and Birmingham (2002), it goes beyond simple chord identification to interpret harmonic role and structure. Harmonic analysis is essential for music theory education, compositional understanding, and music generation systems. It requires understanding both the chords themselves and their functional relationships within a tonal context.
