Perhaps: Some of these threads are beginning to inter-twine. What constitutes melody? What makes music 'mystical'? I have always thought music to be the integration of pitch and time. A true symbiosis. Without the two feeding (off) each other there is no 'music'. If music is an aural journey then surely pitchs define the space and time is created and defined by the mouvement from pitch to pitch. David [log in to unmask]
