Default is classical music like math?
I hear this often, and find it mis-leading. Sure, there is the physics of sound, which has math to it. Scales are like a simple number sequence. Intervals can be represented by frequency ratios. But the actual music written with these building blocks doesn't seem like math. What do you think?
