Very important historical details that are missing completely from all music theory textbooks I have had the misfortune to read. They only give the rules, without explaining the reasons.
Also, imagine using notation to write down, say, electonic music. Drums? Maybe, but which notation? Filters, effects? ugh
- hiddenkrypt 10y agoAs a percussionist, yes, musical notation is used for drums. However, it ends up looking rather like a step sequencer with some standard notational effects (staccato/legato, rests or varying lengths instead of the absence of markings, etc.) This helped me out quite a bit later when I started getting into digital music.
