Images from The Shape of Song





Chopin, Mazurka in F# Minor

The image illustrates the complex, nested structure of the piece.















Philip Glass, Candyman 2

These images show two different tracks of the same piece,

and reflect the underlying elegance and simplicity of the music.













Madonna, Like A Prayer

Pop music has its own style of repetition.

















Bach, Three of the Goldberg Variations

The images are as closely related as the music

and show the AABB form.













Clementine

The refrain of this folk song is simple and repetitive,

without the asymmetry that characterizes minimalist works.













Schoenberg, Opus 19, Movement 1

Our program detects one tiny

island of repetition in this track.
