First Rhapsody (John Ireland)
''First Rhapsody'' is a piece for piano solo by the English composer John Ireland. A performance takes about 12 minutes. The John Ireland Trust records the year of composition as 1905 and the key as C-sharp minor. Allmusic (a derivative source), says 190506 and C-sharp major. The premiere recording ( Mark Bebbington, 2010) says 1906 and C-sharp major.The work may have been begun in 1905 and finished in 1906. The work may be bitonal, in C-sharp major/minor. In the absence of conclusive evidence, Bebbington's information has been adopted for the purpose of Wikipedia categorisation. According to Andrew Achenbach, writing in ''Gramophone Awards Issue'' 2010, the work had "languished undiscovered in the papers of Bruce Phillips (chairman of the John Ireland Trust). The engraver’s markings on the manuscript suggest that this ripely romantic outpouring was at one stage intended for publication, but the self-critical composer evidently had second thoughts". Mark Kennedy, writing ...

Bitonal
Polytonality (also polyharmony) is the musical use of more than one key simultaneously. Bitonality is the use of only two different keys at the same time. Polyvalence or polyvalency is the use of more than one harmonic function, from the same key, at the same time. Some examples of bitonality superimpose fully harmonized sections of music in different keys. History In traditional music Lithuanian traditional singing style sutartines is based on polytonality. A typical sutartines song is based on a six-bar melody, where the first three bars contain melody based on the notes of the triad of a major key (for example, in G major), and the next three bars is based on another key, always a major second higher or lower (for example, in A major). This six-bar melody is performed as a canon, and repetition starts from the fourth bar. As a result, parts are constantly singing in different tonality (key) simultaneously (in G and in A). As a traditional style, sutartines disappeared in ...
