Q: whats the biggest con youve found to seeing music and harmony as "modal", what i mean is trying to fit everything into the frame of what its functionally doing in reference to its modal center. whether it be C Ionnian (major), A aeolian (minor) or D phrygian. I feel like whenever i try to fit it into any sort of frame im already intelectualizing something that perhaps could benefit from a different perspective/approach
A: i don't quite see the difference. the music ultimately will be what it is
