Tonality refers to the systematic organization of pitches in a piece of music that is centered around a particular note called the tonic. This system allows us to describe to any note/chord in a piece in terms of its relationship to the tonic. At a basic level, we may center the discussion of tonality around the notion of a key, which is the set of pitches that construct the foundation of a piece's melody and harmony. At a more advanced level, we may discuss tonality in terms of chords, which are sets of multiple pitches meant to be played simultaneously.
