Patterns in Musical Scores

In the course we will look at the mathematics involved in the patterns in musical scores.  To help us with this we will use a free musical scoring software, that makes it pretty easy to create scores and play them.  Here are three basic examples to show how cool this software is (they took me just a few minutes to create and I am NOT a musical composer).   Click on the score images to watch a YouTube video of the software playing the score.
