Procedures
As in other forms of generation, we will procede from Basic Materials, through Transformations, to the finished product. In this case, the Basic Materials consist of - a complete, detailed Chord Pattern, placed on the harmonic staff, above the music staves, with the fundamental Orbit 1 to Orbit 1 line, in s, placed just below the harmonic staff, on the top music staff. The Transformations, on the following music staves, consist of 1. changing to the secondary orbit lines while maintaining the Level 0 note-values (s) 2. progressing to the note-values of smaller levels, (, , ), constantly adding the secondary Orbit Lines and Non-chordal Tones. 3. Finally operating whatever Rhythmic Transformation is required to produce Ternary Levels. The Melody appears, complete and colored, in the last music staff.

The A section We first see the harmonic staff with the chord Pattern M5664 TONIC / TONIC \ COUNTER / TONIC \ COUNTER / TONIC \ DOMINANT / TONIC. Then, the fundamental Orbit 1 to Orbit 1 line, in s, the notes C / G \ F / G \ F / G \ D / C. The opening notes C / G are both Orbit 1 on account of the Metamorphosis 1. Then, changes to the secondary orbit lines - Orbit 2 to Orbit 1, in the second cell, the notes A / G, and Orbit 1 to Orbit 2, in the third cell, the notes F / E. Then, in the smaller note-values of Level -1, we have neither secondary Orbit-lines or Non-chordal tones to add, because each note is simply repeated. The "A" section appears, complete and colored.
The B section We first see the harmonic staff with the chord Pattern M3333 TONIC / DOMINANT \ TONIC / DOMINANT \ TONIC / DOMINANT \ TONIC / DOMINANT. Then, the fundamental Orbit 1 to Orbit 1 line, in s, the notes C / D \ C / D \ C / D \ C / D. Then, changes to the secondary orbit lines - Orbit 0 to Orbit 3, in the first and thid cells, the notes G / F, and Orbit 2 to Orbit 1, in the second and fourth cells, the notes E / D . Then, in the smaller note-values of Level -1, we have neither secondary Orbit-lines or Non-chordal tones to add, because each note is simply repeated. The "B" section appears, complete and colored.
The complete ABA A Da Capo al fine produces the complete song. Clik on the musical illustration to hear the evolution of the generation.
