In reference to
voice leading
in four-part harmony (
SATB
), close and open structures refers to the relative spacing and voicing
consideration
s of the chords.
Open Structure: A voicing is considered to be of an open
structure
when an interval of an
octave
or more occurs between the soprano and
tenor
voices.
Close Structure: A
chord
is considered to be of a close structure when the
interval
between the
soprano
and tenor voices is less than an octave.
This is a generally accepted
terminology
among
musicologists
and
music
al theorists, and should be recognized as such when used in
conversation
or
analysis
.
