LOL Albert, abstract princples aren't prohibited in talking
about music, they're just abstractions of actual music. You really
should give music a try so you can follow the abstractions which
keep whizzing past your head in these discussions--abstractions which
apply to actual music. It's just abstractions which have nothing
to do with music which are off-topic for rec.music.theory--such
abstractions as The Ancient Theorist, which comes not from music theory
but from conspiracy theory.
Apply your theories to http://personal.www.umich.edu/~fields/audio/s18.mp3
or explain to us why exactly you haven't done so already.
