Topic: Transpositional equivalency


  
  Transposition (music) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In music transposition is moving a note or collection of notes (or pitches) up or down in pitch by a constant interval.
It is similar to enharmonic equivalency and octave equivalency.
Transpositional equivalency is generally supposed by most music theory in that chords which may be transposed onto one another share something in common.

 equivalence relation - Article and Reference from OnPedia.com
In mathematics, an equivalence relation on a set X is a binary relation on X that is reflexive, symmetric and transitive, i.e., if the relation is written as ~ it holds for all a, b and c in X that
Every equivalence relation on X defines a partition of X into subsets called equivalence classes: all elements equivalent to each other are put into one class.
Consider for instance the square X = 0,1x0,1 and the equivalence relation on X generated by the requirements (a,0) ~ (a,1) for all a in 0,1 and (0,b) ~ (1,b) for all b in 0,1.

Transposition is moving a set up or down in pitch by a constant interval.
Multiplication is multiplying the pitch class numbers of a set, the most useful multipliers are 1, 5, 7, 11, as multiplication by 1 is the same, multiplication by 11 is inversion, multiplication of the chromatic scale by 5 produces the circle of fourths and multiplication by 7 produces the circle of fifths.
Transpositions, or transpositions with inversion, are examples of permutation groups.

For this reason, notes an octave apart are given the same note name in the Western system of music notation—the name of a note an octave above A is also A. This is called octave equivalency, and is closely related to the concept of harmonics.
This is similar to enharmonic equivalency, and less so transpositional equivalency and, less still, inversional equivalency, the latter two of which are generally used only in musical set theory or atonal theory.
As well as being used to describe the relationship between two notes, the word is also used when speaking of a range of notes that fall between a pair an octave apart.

When applied to melodies, the inversion of a given melody is the melody turned upside-down - so if the original melody has a rising major third (see interval), the inverted melody has a falling major third.

Biologically functional equivalent peptides are thus defined herein as those peptides in which certain, not most or all, of the amino acids may be substituted.
While discussion has focused on functionally equivalent polypeptides arising from amino acid changes, it will be appreciated that these changes may be effected by alteration of the encoding DNA; taking into consideration also that the genetic code is degenerate and that two or more codons may code for the same amino acid.
Such sequences may arise as a consequence of codon redundancy and functional equivalency which are known to occur naturally within nucleic acid sequences and the proteins thus encoded.

 MTO 4.2: Alpern, Review, Webern and the Lyric Impulse
A note-for-note equivalency relationship unfolding progressively between two sets is ultimately derailed by the last two notes of the piece in a dramatic crescendo.
Moreover, this is succeeded by another transpositional entrance down another whole step of a third pentachord , whose first four notes transpose those of the first pentachord exactly from its beginning, again with the same intervals <-5 1+3>.
In light of this conventional transpositional scheme, Shreffler's contention that lyrical Webern was rebelling against Schoenberg's logically ordered retrogrades and inversions when he abandoned this sketch seems to attack a straw man.

The majority of tonal music assumes that notes spaced over several octaves are perceived the same way as if they were played in one octave or octave equivalency.
This is generally held to imply that a note which has different places in a chord will be heard differently, and that therefore there is not enharmonic equivalency.
In tonal music chords which are moved to different keys, or played with different root notes are not perceived as being the same, and thus transpositional equivalency and far less still inversional equivalency are not generally held to apply.

 The Aural Perception of Pitch-Class Set Relations: A Computer-Assisted Investigation   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
The perception test was designed to measure how recognition of set equivalency may be affected by the perceptual ability of the listener, the set types used and the particular set manipulation involved in the equivalency relationship.
The test paradigm consisted of the presentation of an original set followed by three comparison sets, one of which was transpositionally or inversionally equivalent to the original, the other two being non-equivalent lures in an Rp, R1 or R2 similarity relation with the original.
Statistical tests of subject-response data showed that: subjects with absolute-pitch recognition performed with more accuracy; ordered transformations were more recognizable than reordered transformations; transpositional equivalencies were more discernable than inversional equivalencies; octave displacement disguised set equivalency; and non-equivalent sets with similarity through contour or successive interval invariance were easily confused with equivalent sets.

"Inversional equivalency" is the concept that interval (music),intervals, chord (music),chords, and other sets of pitches are the same when inverted.
In musical set theory inversion may be usefully thought of as the compound operation ''transpositional inversion'', which is the same sense of inversion as in the Inversion (music)#Inverted melodies,Inverted melodies section above, with transposition carried out after inversion.

It is thus contemplated by the inventors that various changes may be made in the sequence of mutacin proteins or peptides (or underlying DNA) without appreciable loss of their biological utility or activity.
It is understood that an amino acid can be substituted for another having a similar hydrophilicity value and still obtain a biologically equivalent, and in particular, an immunologically equivalent protein.
