The power function
The axioms of ZFC provide very little information about the possible values of the power function (i.e. the map K---->2á´·). In this dissertation, we examine various theorems concerning the behaviour of the power function inside the formal system ZFC , and we :;hall be p:trticul:trly interested in results which provide eonstraints on the possible values of the power function. Thus most of the results presented here will be consistency results. A theorem of Easton (Theorem 2.3.1) shows that, when restricted to regular cardinals, the power function may take on any reasonable value, and thus a considerable part of this thesis is concerned with the power function on singular cardinals. We also examine the influence of various strong axioms of infinity, and their generalization to smaller cardinals, on the possible behaviour of the power function

The Music Sound
A guide for music: compositions, events, forms, genres, groups, history, industry, instruments, language, live music, musicians, songs, musicology, techniques, terminology , theory, music video.
Music is a human activity which involves structured and audible sounds, which is used for artistic or aesthetic, entertainment, or ceremonial purposes.
The traditional or classical European aspects of music often listed are those elements given primacy in European-influenced classical music: melody, harmony, rhythm, tone color/timbre, and form. A more comprehensive list is given by stating the aspects of sound: pitch, timbre, loudness, and duration.
Common terms used to discuss particular pieces include melody, which is a succession of notes heard as some sort of unit; chord, which is a simultaneity of notes heard as some sort of unit; chord progression, which is a succession of chords (simultaneity succession); harmony, which is the relationship between two or more pitches; counterpoint, which is the simultaneity and organization of different melodies; and rhythm, which is the organization of the durational aspects of music
