Figure 4. Cumulative rhythmic activity across an 8-measure span
| Play Figure 4a:
(a) Nelson González (tres), “Duet I/Temporal” (qn = 123 bpm).
The clusters of eighth-notes at θ = 0, π indicate extreme
syncopation.
|
Play Figure 4b:
(b) Jaco Pastorious (fretless bass), “Donna Lee” (qn = 109 bpm). Here most of the action revolves around the steady eighteenth-note. |
