Phonic progression {Klang-foige) is the progression between twochords with reference to their signifi-cance as phones. The ordinary methodof marking the phones (major and mi-nor triads) b^ the Roman numerals I,II, III, IV, etc. (comp. Chord) isinadequate from the standpoint of freetonality; this passage:. c I f- Y III c : \T v is hardly intelligible with such a figur-ing ; although it in no way signifies amodulation into another key, one mustperforce consider the ?^-?????. as in/-minor, and the Z>-chord as in C-ma-ior. For such progressions, a figuringwith reference to a scale is simply im-possible ; they are referable to free to-nality, an idea but recently recognized,whose scope extends far beyond thebounds of diatonic harmony. Tonality PHONIKON—PHYSHARMONIKA. 149 knows neither diatonic nor foreignchords, but only a tonic phone and ref-erable (related) phones. In the aboveexample, the C-major triad is through-out the tonic phone, to which the othersare referable ; the .-i[7-major chord isits under-tierce phone, the Z-minorchord is its second over-quint phone,and the C-major chor
