If wetake the series of notes in Example 334, bar 4, we shall see thatit possesses in itself three distinct hghts—the diatonic elementof C major, as well as the sharp and the flat sides of of these three elements may be abstracted, and thecomposer may choose to w^ork in simultaneous planespartly independent, yet sufficiently cohesive on account oftheir contiguity. These planes are usually built up byfifths. Ex. 334.
