For the two points, I agree. Musicology literally translates to "the study of music".

Hi :-) ! I suppose you had better ask in the category "Entertainment and Music" if you have not done so already. I only know the terms in French, which are "contrepoint", "harmonie" and "fugue". In English, it might be the twelve tone technique. Maybe have a look on the links below. \n\nHope this helped a bit if it was indeed about music. Or was it for a poem or something else? Good luck!

Music is a form of communication between souls that no words can describe.  When you discover the type of music that moves you, you have found joy.  When you have found a special person that is moved by the same music, you have found love.

Frecvency ( measured in hertz ) is the number of cycles of the repetitive waveform per second. More simply = the number of vibrations in one second.\nRhythm is the variation of the accentuation of sounds or other events over time.\nBeat is a pulse of sound that marks the metre, rhythm or riddim of a piece of music.\nHarmony is the use and study of pitch simultaneity and chords,  sometimes referred to as the "vertical" aspect of music, with melody being the "horizontal" aspect. \nScale is a set of musical notes that provides material for part or all of a musical work. Scales are typically ordered in pitch, with their ordering providing a measure of musical distance. \nOctave is the interval between one musical note and another with half or double the frequency.\n\nfor more use Wikipedia\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page   >> search >>

The term Classical music can be confusing. Classical music as we know today, is music written in the baroque, classical, romantic, impressionistic, neo-classic, atonal, and other modern composing techniques. The genre of classical music spreads from composers like Johann Sebastian Bach (1685 to 1750) to living composers today, like Pierre Boulez. Basically, the evolution of classical music is parallel to the movement of art paintings. \n\nHowever, classical musicians would call a piece "classical" if it was written in the time period of W.A. Mozart, L.v. Beethoven, F. Schubert, and J.Haydn. This periods spans from early eighteenth century to mid nineteenth century.\n\nBut going back to your question, in the WWI era, classical music as we know today is still referred as it is, because even though a lot of "classical music" was still being written at that time, there were already few hundreds years of music written before.

Do you mean musical notes or musical notation?\n\nBoth have been around for a very, very long time.  In Western civilization, for example, the Greek mathematician Pythagoras studied the characteristics of music very carefully.  He made an instrument called a "monochord" (a one-stringed instrument) and learned about how to create different notes on his instrument by shortening the string.  His ideas about music still affect Western music greatly today.

Math is used in music everywhere. A lot of the theory behind music deals with math. My theory professor in college was big into using math-like equations to solve theory problems. It can be used in the circle of fiths, finding intervals, chord progressions. About anything! A more recent math/music related thing is Schoenberg's 12 tone system. He uses math and notes to come up with all the different ways to arrange the 12 different notes on the keyboard. You can create a whole matrix just using a certain progression of notes. It's really interesting! To find more information try looking in some college music theory books. Or contact a theory professor at a local college! They could give you lots of good examples.

"Melody may be said to result where there are interacting patterns of changing events occurring in time." (DeLone et. al. (Eds.) 1975, p.270-1\n\nhttp://www-student.furman.edu/users/r/rkelley/form.htm\nAlso wikipedia says this:\n"The term musical form is used in two related ways:\n\na generic type of composition such as the symphony or concerto \nthe structure of a particular piece, how its parts are put together to make the whole; this too can be generic, such as binary form or sonata form \nMusical form (the whole or structure) is contrasted with content (the parts) or with surface (the detail), but there is no clear line between the two. In most cases, the form of a piece should produce a balance between statement and restatement, unity and variety, contrast and connection.\n\nThere is some overlap between musical form and musical genre. The latter term is more likely to be used when referring to particular styles of music (such as classical music or rock music) as determined by things such as harmonic language, typical rhythms, types of musical instrument used and geographical origin. The phrase musical form is typically used when talking about a particular type or structure within those genres. For example, the twelve bar blues is a specific form often found in the genres of blues, rock and roll and jazz music."

An etude (from the French word étude meaning "study") is a short musical composition designed to provide practice in a particular technical skill in the performance of a solo instrument. For example, Frédéric Chopin's etude Op. 25 No. 6 trains pianists to play rapid parallel chromatic thirds, Op. 25 No. 7 emphasizes the production of singing tone in a polyphonic melody, and Op. 25 No. 10 covers parallel octaves.
