Turning Some Music for Stargate: Atlantis

A number of my 2018 posts to this blog demonstrate how, by flipping or turning a representation of some music, you get either the representation of the same music or that of music nearby. Examples include a piano piece by Schoenberg, a song from a Disney movie musical, a string quartet of Pfitzner, a song by Richard Strauss, a popular celebratory melody (and one part-writing assignment of its notes in a typical harmonization), and a well-known cantata movement by J.S. Bach.

This video provides another example of this. It is most like the Pfitzner analysis, in that a particular rotation not only leaves the notes unchanged, but it also preserves the tonicizations as well.
