Abstract: Abstract Frequently minimal music, particularly the sub-species referred to as “repetitive music,” turns around in loops. I never really wrote repetitive music, but I’ve written an awful lot of musical loops, and there are a great many ways of doing this. Most of the loops we’ll be discussing here might better be called “rhythmic canons”, a term introduced in Perspectives of New Music in 1991-1992 in an article by the Rumanian mathematician and music theorist Dan Tudor Vuza. Basically this article has to do with rhythms that repeat canonically in such a way that every point in time is touched exactly once by one of the voices.
