cheddatom Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 [quote name='ras52' timestamp='1445271446' post='2890125'] I don't think the sound needs to be repeated to be musical: consider the sound made by a professional cellist playing a single note, compared to the sound of me trying to do the same. Of course there's repetition on a micro level, as the waveforms repeat (and vary). [/quote] One note droning on without any variation wouldn't be musical IMO, no matter how nice it sounds.

CHW Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 Not read whole thread but to me music is "Aural Art" therefore anything either delivered or perceived as a musical sound, is one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So music isn't created it's perceived. Doesn't matter what the creator intended, it's what the audience thinks that matters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
