Quantifying Harmony: The Mathematical Essence of Music
Abstract: This research delves into the intricate correlation between music and mathematics, examining how mathematical principles play a fundamental role in shaping various aspects of musical theory and composition. Starting from Pythagoras' early insights on harmonic intervals to the complex patterns found in the Fibonacci sequence and fractal geometry, this study uncovers the deep connections between numerical concepts and musical notes. By extensively exploring historical perspectives, theoretical frameworks, and practical applications, we gain valuable insight into how mathematical ideas influence the melodies, harmonies, and rhythms that elevate our auditory experiences.
