	Salsa & Merengue Society – Salsa: The Music
		The cooperative role of the musicians are a reflection of the African roots of the music.
		The son is the music of storytellers; where the troubadours would sing about anything that took their fancy: how good the harvest was, what they had for dinner that night etc. They would improvise with lyrics and voice to keep in the clave of the song.
		Introduced into Latin music via the barrios (Latin neighbourhoods) of New York, jazz notes played on piano and brass are testament to the days when the big jazz bands of Machito and his peers played at the Palladium theatre in the ’50s.

		Music (A) In music, A is the name of the sixth tone in the model major scale (that in C), or the first tone of the minor scale, which is named after it the scale in A minor.
		Air is a musical idea, or motive, rhythmically developed in consecutive single tones, so as to form a symmetrical and balanced whole, which may be sung by a single voice to the stanzas of a hymn or song, or even to plain prose, or played upon an instrument.
		In music, in a counterpoint and fugue, an augmentation is a repetition of the subject in tones of twice the original length.

	Staff (music) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In musical notation, the staff or stave is a set of five horizontal lines on which note symbols are placed to indicate pitch and rhythm.
		The musical staff can be thought of as a graph of pitch with respect to time; pitches are roughly given by their vertical position on the staff, and notes on the left are played before notes to their right.
		Music on the staff is read from left to right: one note to the right of another means that it is to be played later; how much later depends on its note value and the tempo.

	Bar (music) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In musical notation, a bar or measure is a segment of time defined as a given number of beats of a given duration.
		In music with a regular meter, bars represent a periodic pulse in the music.
		In music employing mixed meters, barlines are instead used to indicate the beginning of rhythmic note groups, but this is subject to wide variation: some composers use dashed barlines, others (including Hugo Distler) have placed barlines at different places in the different parts to indicate varied groupings from part to part.

	Enharmonic - One Language (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		In music, an enharmonic is a note which is the equivalent of some other note, but spelled differently.
		For example, in twelve-tone equal temperament (the normal system of musical tuning in the west), the notes C sharp and D flat are enharmonically equivalent - that is, they are represented by the same key (on a musical keyboard, for example), and thus are identical in pitch, although they have different names and diatonic functionality.
		The reason that — despite, in almost all western music, Ab is exactly the same pitch as G# — we label them differently is that in tonal music notes are named for their harmonic function.

	Dolmetsch Online - Music Theory Online - Figured Bass
		Accidentals are used to signify where notes are to be raised or lowered a semitone in pitch from the scale of the key-note.
		Occasionally, 'courtesy accidentals' are used to reinforce information already indicated by the case of the Roman numeral under the chord.
		Other accidentals may be used to show that a note is 'raised' (using a sharp) or 'lowered' (using a flat) when there is actually no sharp or flat in the chord.

		The music is subtly Ravelian impressionistic too and the entry of the guitar softly tinges the music appropriately Spanish-coloured.
		The music for this cue chugs along happily and comically but there is also an edge as we share the women's views and conflicting emotions once more.
		With kaleidoscopic musical effects recycled from "Always" (plus a metamorphosis from 'Follow Me' into 'Isebel's Horse and Buggy'), light comedic effects from "Sabrina," motifs lifted from "The Accidental Tourist," synthesizer elements carried from "Sleepers," a theme from an episode of "Amazing Stories," it plays like a compilation of John Williams' Dullest Hits.

		It must be clear whether the accidental is on the line or in the space; it should not be placed haphazardly or drawn in a crude manner.
		If the chord has three accidentals the top accidental is placed closest to the note, the lowest accidental is placed left of the top accidental, and the middle accidental is placed farthest to the left.
		The top accidental is again placed closest to the note, then the next accidental down is placed left of the top accidental and the third accidental down is placed left of the second.

	Common Music Notation
		All the musical data is organized into a list of systems, each system containing a list of staves, each staff containing a list of objects like notes, rests, and so on, and each object containing a variety of lists describing its attributes.
		Of course, the actual code is a bit more complicated because sometimes the dot goes under the note, we have to try to avoid colliding with staff lines, and we have to do something reasonable with the objects that might be passed as arguments to staccato.
		The easiest way to mix text and music is to position the music using the margin slots, then attach the text as a series of marks on a staff.

	accidental, music notation symbol
		A symbol placed before a note-head in musical notation, or after a letter-name in a text description, which indicates some intonational change or pitch adjustment relative to the tuning of the plain note or letter-name.
		The name "accidental" is derived from the fact that these notes are felt to lie outside the regular diatonic scale.
		There is also a "natural", which cancels the effect of a previously given accidental, whether that accidental occurs in a particular instance or in the key-signature.

		As it is now, such accidentals may be indicated and positioned automatically by using an articulation that looks like an accidental and is attached to the affected note.

	Dolmetsch Online - Music Theory Online - Key Signatures and Accidentals
		Music from Baroque and earlier periods may be written with key signatures containing fewer sharps or flats than we might expect.
		The rules for applying accidentals are simple to state today, but hundreds of years ago, the rules varied from composer to composer, from country to country and could be said to be 'confused'.
		Modern editions of mediaeval and renaissance music can disagree in their 'realisation' of accidentals, a situation made more difficult because the concept of key was changing from older modes to newer major and minor keys.

		The music on 'Accidental' tends towards the dark and severe, with squeals of guitar feedback layered over ominous drones, percussive elements assembled from cut up vocals (either Fred's or taken from radio), but this shouldn't imply that the music on this album is non-melodic.
