Duplicate of Does it really make difference to play a song in a different key?
Jul 9, 2017 at 14:00 comment added Brian THOMAS Also check out the Parsons code classification of melodies according to their contour. Starting with the first note, each successive note of the melody is either a Repeat of the previous note, or goes Up or Down. musipedia.org/pc.0.html?&L=0

Jul 7, 2017 at 16:44 comment added Tim @NeilMeyer - funnily enough, it's something I do to show students how important the rhythmic pattern of a song is. I play all the right notes, in the right order, but change the note values,and chances are they don't recognise what the tune is - because, simply, it's not the same tune as original...

Jul 7, 2017 at 6:51 comment added Neil Meyer The rhythm does not need to be identical, variations on a theme probably all have different rhythms but you can still recognise the melody it was built on

Jul 6, 2017 at 21:32 comment added blusician I think there are 12 notes in a key, and the arrangement of them changes color of sound. Rhythm is very important and often overlooked, because it is the other half of playing. For song recognition that is just because we humans tend to pick up on melody quite quick. The melody of a tune sticks and understanding melody in song creation is quite powerful.
