Hexachord

In music, a hexachord (also hexachordon) is a six-note series, as exhibited in a scale or tone row. The term was adopted in this sense during the Middle Ages and adapted in the 20th century in Milton Babbitt's serial theory. The word is taken from the , compounded from ἕξ (''hex'', six) and χορδή (''chordē'', string (the lyre ), whence "note"), and was also the term used in music theory up to the 18th century for the interval of a sixth ("hexachord major" being the major sixth and "hexachord minor" the minor sixth).〔William Holder, ''A Treatise of the Natural Grounds and Principles of Harmony'' (London: Printed by J. Heptinstall, for John Carr, at the Middle-Temple-Gate, in Fleet-Street, 1694): 192. Facsimile reprint, New York: Broude Brothers, 1967.〕〔Ephraim Chambers, ''Cyclopædia: or, an Universal Dictionary of Arts and Sciences'', 2 vols. (London: Printed for J. and J. Knapton (18 others ), 1728): 1, part 2:247.〕

These six pitches are named ''ut'', ''re'', ''mi'', ''fa'', ''sol'', and ''la'', with the semitone between ''mi'' and ''fa''. These six names are derived from the first syllable of each half-verse of the first stanza of the 8th-century Vesper hymn ''Ut'' queant laxis ''re''sonare fibris / ''Mi''ra gestorum ''fa''muli tuorum, etc.〔Guido d'Arezzo, "Epistola de ignotu cantu (1030 )", abridged translation by Oliver Strink in ''Source Readings in Music History'', selected and annotated by Oliver Strunk, 5 vols. (New York: W. W. Norton, 1965): 1:121–25. Citation on p. 124.〕 Melodies with a range wider than a major sixth required the device of mutation to a new hexachord. For example, the hexachord beginning on C and rising to A, named ''hexachordum naturale'', has its only semitone between the notes E and F, and stops short of the note B or B. A melody moving a semitone higher than ''la'' (namely, from A to the B above) required changing the ''la'' to ''mi'', so that the required B becomes ''fa''. Because B was named by the "soft" or rounded letter B, the hexachord with this note in it was called the ''hexachordum molle'' (soft hexachord). Similarly, the hexachord with ''mi'' and ''fa'' expressed by the notes B and C was called the ''hexachordum durum'' (hard hexachord), because the B was represented by a squared-off, or "hard" B. Starting in the 14th century, these three hexachords were extended in order to accommodate the increasing use of signed accidentals on other notes.〔Jehoash Hirshberg, "Hexachord", ''The New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians'', second edition, edited by Stanley Sadie and John Tyrrell (London: Macmillan Publishers, 2001).〕
The introduction of these new notes was principally a product of polyphony, which required the placing of a perfect fifth not only above the old note B, but also below its newly created variant, this entailing, as a result of the ‘original sin‘ committed by the well-meant innovation B, the introduction of the still newer respective notes F and E, with as consequences of these last C and A, and so on. The new notes, being outside the gamut of those ordinarily available, had to be "imagined", or "feigned" (it was long forbidden to write them), and for this reason music containing them was called ''musica ficta'' or ''musica falsa''.〔Andrew Hughes and Edith Gerson-Kiwi, "Solmization (solmifatio )", ''The New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians'', second edition, edited by Stanley Sadie and John Tyrrell (London: Macmillan Publishers, 2001): §4, "Expansion of the Hexachord System".〕
