Chuck: Surely rhythm, melody and harmony are the eternal musical trinity - allowing, of course, that the relative importance of each element may vary between cultures? Is your emphasis on rhythm an over-compensation for the relative rhythmic poverty of much of the popular canon of European art music - cf. the Indian or African traditions or even the Eastern Mediterannean, for instance?
