## Resource

Download the free guide “5 Spells Every Composer Needs” and start using interval-based composition techniques in your own music: https://musicintervaltheory.academy/spells/ In this episode, Frank explores the overlooked concept of interval resolution and explains why single intervals—not just chords—are the true carriers of musical energy. By focusing on how intervals like the minor second resolve and move, composers can create tension, release, and forward motion without relying on heavy harmonic changes. Thinking horizontally instead of vertically opens up new expressive possibilities and leads to more alive, breathing music.
