transpose / transposition

[Joe Monzo]

A shifting of a musical entity (melody, harmonies, or both) from one pitch region to another, preserving intact all of its characteristics other than pitch (unless the composer or performer wishes to alter those as well).

The specific amount of shift along the pitch-continuum is expressed as an interval.
