OK ... I HAVE to tackle this subject because I've found that it so often comes up in musical conversation and is massively misunderstood. The usage and avoidance of parallel fifths and parallel octaves.
My idea is to try and get the basic understanding across of when we do and don't use these devices and most of the reasoning why. As it can be a bit of a touchy subject I had the article double-checked by two musicologists: Maria Antal and Yaiza Varona.…

Hi James.... Thanks for the friendship :)
Great music! Do you mind me asking how you create your music? What programmes etc? Sounding really good.

I have checked out your music here on the site and it's great!

Looking forward to see you again. Maybe at the next get together
Cheers
Toomas
