If so, should you really be trying to think of something 'off the top of your head'? What about research? Are you asking about chord progressions in Modernist music or modern as in contemporary i.e. the present ...which would place you in the Post Modern or even post post modern era? Modernism was identifiable ( in part ) by its move away from tonality and standard chord progressions; post modernism by a move back to the same. (I'm speaking broadly here). Bearing that in mind, you might want to start by identifying a composer of modern/post-modern music and then take a look at one of their works to find your example. EDIT: Or is it about identifying the transference of WAM techniques to popular music? If so, Minimalism wouldn't be a bad place to start. |

Well i've had my draft marked and i'm at about a 66 (which is a mid 2:1) and i've given some direction to raise my grade to a first so i've looked how classical music is directley quoted in pop music, so my next direction is look at how classical form and technique is used, and ultimately im going to look at moderen compositional styles influence more recent music, ( peter maxwel davies etc)
