Just as harmony is an idealized abstraction of the human voice, so rhythm is an idealized abstraction of physical movements like walking and dancing. I’d like to take Wilkerson’s theory a step further. A pitch is a really just a very fast rhythm. Chords are very fast polyrhythm. Just as rhythm is fundamental to music generally, so too should our theory of rhythm be fundamental to our theory of music generally.
