Detailed Discussion of Score Behavior

This section should be treated as score-first rather than code-first. The earlier sections explain how the system is built. Here the focus should shift to what the generated or encoded scores actually do.

For Modus Operandi, the main points are movement shape, modal identity, and the relation between a clear melodic line and slow intervallic support. For Jazz Rhythmic Patterns, the main points are rhythmic identity, reuse, and comparison across notated examples. For the quartets, the main points are density, register, pitch organization, instrumentation, and the contrast between No. 1 and No. 2.

The two quartets deserve the closest reading. No. 1 should be discussed as the first stable proof-of-concept score. No. 2 should be discussed as an evolving branch whose main musical changes are concentrated in piano behavior. This includes chord generation, spacing, occupancy, and the gradual shift away from purely single-line keyboard writing.

In the final paper, this section should rely more on score figures than on code. Small code references are still fine when they explain a specific musical behavior, but the primary evidence here should be the engraved scores and, if useful, short notated examples.
