11. Guerino Mazzola (Spring 2016 © ): Performance Theory Definition: Global metric is the structure induced by the covering of the onsets by (maximal) local meters. What is rhythm?

12. Guerino Mazzola (Spring 2016 © ): Performance Theory Need quantification of geometric facts for PerformanceRubette = analytical weights! Especially: metrical weights w(E,H,…) H E

13. Guerino Mazzola (Spring 2016 © ): Performance Theory Definition: The (metrical) rhythm is the weight function on the onsets, which is deduced from the global metric by the formula w(x) =  x ∈ M, m ≧ l(M) l(M) p w(x) =  x ∈ M, m ≧ l(M) l(M) p M = any motif m = minimal admitted length of local meters p = metrical profile w(x) =  x ∈ M, m ≧ l(M) l(M) p w(x) =  x ∈ M, m ≧ l(M) l(M) p M = any motif m = minimal admitted length of local meters p = metrical profile

(onset o, pitch p mandatory, the others may be present but we do not use them here) Definition: A motif M in the given note space (fixed for given context) is a set M = {n 1, n 2,... n k } of notes with o n i ≠ o n j for i ≠ j.
