Abstract

The use of various types of scalar formations in a context, which does not utilize harmonic progressions, and dissonance in a traditional manner form the basis of the pandiatonic technique. The purpose of this article is to investigate the use of this technique in the organ works of the Brazilian composer Calimerio Soares.
