Timbre composition
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Timbre composition is the art of creating new timbres.[1] It is often performed electronically, either by combining sine waves (additive synthesis) or by filtering out harmonics from more complex waves (subtractive synthesis).
Timbre composition is used in vocal techniques such as throat-singing where the main focus of the music is timbre as opposed to pitch.
Music that has been composed solely using the art of Timbre composition is called Timbre-centered music.
Timbral listening is a technique used in both the composition and reception of Timbre-centered music which has been created using Timbre composition.
