ok-but not all serial music is twelve-tone. I think that this video would be a better characterization of dodecaphonic/twelve tone music than -serialism-. Also, I think that the characterization of Schoenberg's -rigid- use of the twelve-tone system is inaccurate, as he frequently repeats notes from earlier in the series in his twelve-tone works.

Is this type of music meant to be enjoyed by a casual listener like me or is it more for musicians and composers to do cool stuff with? I only ask because a lot of this and contemporary classic music makes me very uncomfortable.

I'm also trying to compose non-integral serial / dodecaphonic music. I have a question: in the composition the pitch of the notes must be the same as that of the series or can I change the octave? Thanks in advance

I understand Schoenberg's ears guided his selection of tone rows. I wonder if he (our anyone) ever found a row he wanted to work with, but just didn't find the retrograde (say) good enough.

I know next to nothing about music. Why are there 12 notes in a -scale-? Is there something fundamental about this or is it just a convention?

There are only 11 out of 12 notes here. Your lowest note is f# so that's 0. You should also have f# 12 am I right or is that different?

Please show more of this. I'd love to see any examples of the inverted intervals used/played backward, forward, or very freely.
