certainly, although unfortunately cowell's theory and composition were not always subject to the same level of development... one might also suggest that chopin's 1st prelude in op28 is an[other] important step in the increasing rhythmic detail out of which certain aspects of new complexity would arise, specifically nested tuplets, as well as tuplets within "tuplet measures", or /10 and /6 meters]. http://newmusicnotation.com/temp/sn.chopin_op28-01.pdf however, rhythmic complexification seems to be only used for expressive means in this chopin example. jef -- .jef.chippewa. mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] .shirling.&.neueweise. mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://newmusicnotation.com _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
