I find it cool to see different popular pieces taking fragmental elements from pieces by Bach. In a performance of Beethoven's Symphony no.5 i saw a week ago, I noticed how frequently Bach used the dot-dot-dot-dash motive as beethoven used. In bach's prelude no.1 in C major WTC II, the motive is repeated a gazillion times. I just found this cool. :yay: |

I'm pretty sure this is something in math called "Group Theory." It was in Chang's book. |

Yeah, the 5-5-5-3 pattern. The whole 3 repeated notes and a surprise note (the 3) |

What is a dot-dot-dot-dash or a 3-3-3-5? |

Jackson, I meant as in rhythm w/ the dot-dot-dot-dash thing. But 5-5-5-3 means the note sequence. |

dot-dot-dot-dash = staccato-staccato-staccato-tenuto?
5-5-5-3 = (eg.) G-G-G-E?

This really does belong in general music, since it not only applies to the music of Bach and the baroque era but to all music in general.

Definatly, as we were talking about Beethoven then.
I noticed in Haydns 'Fifths' String quartet there are lots of similar patterns rearranged mathmatically.
