Symmetry
and Symmetry Breaking in Music
Canon by Augmentation
composed by Scott Kim. There are two
voices, which start an octave apart. Both
voices play the same notes, but the higher voice plays twice as fast as the lower voice. Notice that the higher voice
completes two repetitions in the time it
takes the lower voice to complete one. The exact symmetry is broken only on
the last note.
