Quoted from http://french.chass.utoronto.ca/as-sa... a research paper: Differential weighting and classification constituted the most vital contribution
of Explaining Music. The heart of the book (chapter 7, 131-241) is a
catalogue of six diverse “melodic structures,” each of which intermingled
natural and learned principles in a different way.
