STARTED OFF AS THREE MOVEMENTS BUT THEN BECAME FOUR MOVEMENTS- FOURTH ALWAYS TRANSCENDENT
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classical_music
Symphonies written during the Classical period are usually divided into four movements: (1) an opening Allegro in sonata form, (2) a slow movement, (3) a minuet or scherzo (in a triple meter, such as 3/4), and (4) a final Allegro. These movements can then be further broken down into a hierarchy of smaller units: first sections, then periods, and finally phrases.
TYPICAL SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA FOUR GROUPS OF INSTRUMENTS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orchestra
The typical symphony orchestra consists of four groups of related musical instruments called the woodwinds, brass, percussion, and strings (violin, viola, cello and double bass).
FOUR PSYCHOLOGICAL ASPECTS OF SOUND
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Music
Since the emergence of the study of psychoacoustics in the 1930s, most lists of elements of music have related more to how we hear music than how we learn to play it or study it. C.E. Seashore, in his book Psychology of Music,[17] identified four "psychological attributes of sound". These were: "pitch, loudness, time, and timbre" (p. 3). He did not call them the "elements of music" but referred to them as "elemental components" (p. 2). Nonetheless these elemental components link precisely with four of the most common musical elements: "Pitch" and "timbre" match exactly, "loudness" links with dynamics and "time" links with the time-based elements of rhythm, duration and tempo. This usage of the phrase "the elements of music" links more closely with Webster's New 20th Century Dictionary definition of an element as: "a substance which cannot be divided into a simpler form by known methods"[18] and educational institutions' lists of elements align with this list as well.
FOUR MAIN THEMES- usually 16 BARS- 16 SQUARES QMR
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ragtime
Original ragtime pieces usually contain several distinct themes, four being the most common number. These themes were typically 16 bars, each theme divided into periods of four four-bar phrases and arranged in patterns of repeats and reprises. Typical patterns were AABBACCC′, AABBACCDD and AABBCCA, with the first two strains in the tonic key and the following strains in the subdominant
MEN SINGERS FOUR GROUPS

Men are usually divided into four groups: countertenor, tenor, baritone, and bass.
FOUR VOCAL REGISTERS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singing
Speech pathologists identify four vocal registers based on the physiology of laryngeal function: the vocal fry register, the modal register, the falsetto register, and the whistle register. This view is also adopted by many vocal pedagogues.[13]

EXAMPLE
DESTINYS CHILD ORIGINALLY FOUR FOURTH LEFT
Because of the group's defeat, Knowles's father, Mathew, voluntarily dedicated his time to manage them.[8][11] Mathew Knowles decided to cut the original lineup to four, with the removal of Davis and the Taylor sisters and the inclusion of LeToya Luckett in 1993.[7][8] Aside from spending time at their church in Houston, Girl's Tyme practiced in their backyards and at Headliners Salon, owned by Knowles's mother, Tina. The group would test routines in the salon, when it was on Montrose Boulevard in Houston, and sometimes would collect tips from the customers. Their try out would be critiqued by the people inside. During their school days, Girl's Tyme performed at local gigs. When summer came, Mathew Knowles established a "boot camp" to train them in dance and vocal lessons.[12] After rigorous training, they began performing as opening acts for established R&B groups of that time such as SWV, Dru Hill and Immature.[7] Tina Knowles designed the group's attire for their performances.[12]
Four Men and a Dog
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_Men_and_a_Dog
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Four Men and a Dog is an Irish traditional band that emerged in 1990 during the Belfast Folk Festival. The band plays Irish traditional music with a mixture of different other genres, including rock, jazz, blues, bluegrass, swing, salsa, polka and even rap. They originally had their name because of former singer Mick Daly's nick; "The Black Dog". Mick is now replaced with Kevin Doherty.
They met the famous group The Band in 1994, and recorded their album Doctor A's Secret Remedies at Levon Helm's studio in Woodstock, NY, with musical guests Garth Hudson and Randy Ciarlante. Rick Danko has joined Four Men and a Dog on a UK tour where they played some of The Band's classics.

FOUR MEMBERS- CROSSES ARE QUADRANTS- crucified- AGAIN IF YOU LOOK AT THE MEMBERS LINES FOR WHEN THEY WERE AROUND THREE WERE CONSISTENT THE FOURTH WAS DIFFERENT AND CHANGED
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Crucified
The Crucified is an American Christian hardcore and crossover thrash band from Fresno, California that formed in 1984. Its lineup is vocalist Mark Salomon, guitarist Greg Minier, bassist Jeff Bellew, and drummer Jim Chaffin. The Crucified released two studio albums and three demos. They toured California for the majority of their career and appeared at the Cornerstone Festival outside of Chicago several times. The band broke up in 1993 due to personal differences, but reunited in 2009.
In late 1984, drummer Jim Chaffin, guitarist Greg Minier, bassist Kirk Palmer, and vocalist Wayne Stonecipher started a band named K.G.B. in Fresno, California[1][2] The four teens knew each other as high school classmates. The name K.G.B. had no meaning to it, the members just thought initials "sounded cool".[3] In early 1985, K.G.B. was looking for a new vocalist due to the departure of Stonecipher. Minier asked his friend Mark Salomon to try out as vocalist.

Moon's Milk (In Four Phases) is a release by Coil that compiles four of their singles onto a double CD. The two disc album compiles the CD versions of Spring Equinox, Summer Solstice, Autumn Equinox and Winter Solstice (originally recorded throughout 1998, and released seasonally from March 1998 to January 1999). The album also has a live version of "Amethyst Deceivers" hidden at the end of the first disc, following several minutes of silence after "A Warning From The Sun (For Fritz)". This recording of "Amethyst Deceivers" was later released on Live Two, although the Moon's Milk version is a slightly longer edit.[1] The release was given the catalog number ESKATON 023 and features artwork by Steven Stapleton.
FOUR BALLADS

Later in 1999, the song was added to most new releases of the 1998 album Oceanborn, and in 2004 also on the compilation album Tales from the Elvenpath.
BAND OF FOUR ANIMATED CHARACTERS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gorillaz
Gorillaz are a British virtual band created in 1998 by musician Damon Albarn and artist Jamie Hewlett. The band consists of four animated members: 2-D (lead vocals, keyboards), Murdoc Niccals (bass guitar and vocals), Noodle (guitar, keyboards) and Russel Hobbs (drums and percussion). These members are fictional and are not personas of any "real life" musicians involved in the project.[5] Their fictional universe is explored through the band's website and music videos, as well as a number of other media, such as short cartoons. In reality, Albarn is the only permanent musical contributor, and the music is often a collaboration between various musicians. Writers and critics have described their music as alternative rock,[1] Britpop,[6] trip hop,[7][8] hip hop,[9] electronica, indie, dub, reggae and pop.[10][11]
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_Winds
Four Winds is an EP by the indie rock band Bright Eyes, that was released on March 6, 2007. The title track is the first single from their album Cassadaga. The other 5 tracks are exclusive b-sides from the 2006 recording sessions. It is marketed as being "quietly enchanting" and including "a wandering country charm and all of the story-telling seductiveness of earlier work. The fiddle refrain in the verse utilizes a melody identical to that of the vocal refrain ("Na, na na, na na na na") in Joan Baez's rendition of "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down."[1] The song "Four Winds" was ranked #5 on Rolling Stone's list of the 100 Best Songs of 2007.[2]
BEST KNOWN CUBAN SONG FOUR VERSES
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guantanamera
"Guantanamera" (Spanish: "from Guantánamo, feminine" indicating a woman from Guantánamo[1]) is perhaps the best known Cuban song and that country's most noted patriotic song, especially when using a poem by the Cuban poet José Martí for the lyrics. In 1966, a version by American vocal group The Sandpipers, based on an arrangement by The Weavers from their May 1963
The better known "official" lyrics are based on selections from the poetry collection Versos sencillos (Simple Verses) by Cuban poet and independence hero José Martí, as adapted by Julián Orbón. The four verses of the song were adapted from four stanzas of Versos sencillos, each from a different poem. They are presented here in the original Spanish (poem:stanza).
I:1
V:3
XXXIX:1
III:2
Yo soy un hombre sincero
De donde crece la palma,
Y antes de morir yo quiero
Echar mis versos del alma.
Mi verso es de un verde claro
Y de un carmín encendido:
Mi verso es un ciervo herido
Que busca en el monte amparo.
Cultivo una rosa blanca
En julio como enero,
Para el amigo sincero
Que me da su mano franca.
Con los pobres de la tierra
Quiero yo mi suerte echar:
El arroyo de la sierra
Me complace más que el mar.
By José Fernández[edit]
Given the song's musical structure, which fits A-B-A-B (sometimes A-B-B-A) octosyllabic verses, "Guantanamera" lent itself from the beginning to impromptu verses, improvised on the spot, similar to what happens with the Mexican folk song "La Bamba". Joseíto Fernández first used the tune to comment on daily events on his radio program by adapting the lyrics to the song's melody, and then using the song to conclude his show. Through this use, "Guantanamera" became a popular vehicle for romantic, patriotic, humorous, or social commentary in Cuba and elsewhere in the Spanish-speaking world.
FOUR NOTE MOTIF FOUR MOVEMENTS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symphony_No._4_(Tchaikovsky)
The composer's description of the symphony's opening fanfare as a metaphor for "Fate" becomes more telling in the context of a letter he wrote Sergei Taneyev. He wrote Taneyev that the Fourth Symphony was both program music and a reflection of Beethoven's Fifth Symphony in the central idea of its program.[7] Keller has mentioned a parallel between the four-note motif which opens Beethoven's Fifth and the fanfare at the outset of Tchaikovsky's Fourth. Like Beethoven, Tchaikovsky uses his fanfare as a structural marker. Moreover, because of both the length and unorthodox form of the symphony, he may have felt using such a marker was a musical necessity.[8]
Form[edit]
The symphony is in four movements:
FOUR SACRED PIECES- FILLED WITH FOURS- FOUR VOICES ("IT WILL BE MY FOURTH")- FOUR PART CHORUS FOUR MIXED VOICES
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quattro_pezzi_sacri
The Quattro pezzi sacri (Italian pronunciation: [ˈkwattro ˈpɛttsi ˈsaːkri], Four Sacred Pieces) are choral works by Giuseppe Verdi. Written separately during the last decades of the composer's life and with different origins and purposes, they were nevertheless published together in 1898 by Casa Ricordi. They are often performed as a cycle, not in chronological sequence of their composition, but in the sequence used in the Ricordi publication:
Ave Maria, a setting of the Latin "Ave Maria" for four solo voices a cappella composed in 1889
Stabat Mater, a setting of the Latin "Stabat Mater" for chorus and orchestra composed in 1896 and 1897
Laudi alla Vergine Maria, a setting of a prayer in Canto XXXIII of Dante's Paradiso for four female voices a cappella composed between 1886 and 1888
Te Deum, a setting of the Latin "Te Deum" for double chorus and orchestra composed in 1895 and 1896.
They were first performed together (without the Ave Maria) in a concert by the Paris Opera on April 7, 1898.
Verdi was inspired in 1889 to compose Ave Maria by the enigmatic scale C – D-flat – E – F-sharp – G-sharp – A-sharp – B – C which Adolfo Crescentini (1854–1921) had published in Ricordi's magazine Gazetta musicale di Milano, inviting composers to harmonise it.[6] Verdi composed a setting for four unaccompanied voices, with the bass singing the scale first, followed by alto, tenor and soprano, whereas the three remaining voices supply harmonic texture.[4] He commented: "An Ave Maria. It will be my fourth! Perhaps I shall be beatified by the Holy Father."[6] Verdi revised the work in June 1897 for the publication.[3] The music publisher Schott renders the subtitle as "Scala enigmatica armonizzata a 4 voci miste" (Enigmatic scale harmonised for four mixed voices).[5] It takes about six minutes to perform.
Stabat Mater[edit]
While Ave Maria is set for soloists, Verdi scored the Stabat Mater for a four-part mixed chorus (SATB) and a large orchestra of three flutes, two oboes, two clarinets. four bassoons, four horns, three trumpets, four trombones, percussion (timpani and bass drum), harp and strings.
The work is through-composed, without repetition of text. It is full of chromaticism. Melodic parts, similar to arias, contrast with a capella passages and dramatic outbursts. The music reaches a climax on the text Paradisi gloria (glory of paradise), then dies down in the lowest registers of the strings.[4] A performance takes about 12 minutes.
Laudi alla Vergine Maria[edit]
Laudi alla Vergine Maria is another a cappella work, set for four solo female voices. It is based on a short prayer from in Canto XXXIII of Dantes's Paradiso, the third part of his Divina Commedia. Verdi alludes on the counterpoint of Renaissance music. Each stanza is introduced by a new motif. Biographer Budden describes the piece as "with the subtlest of harmonic and rhythmic inflexions, unashamedly modern in character". The audience requested a repetition when it was first performed.[7][4] Publisher Schott renders the subtitle as "Tolte dall' ultimo canto del "Paradiso" di Dante per 4 voci feminili, sole" (Taken from the ultimate song of "Paradiso" by Dante for 4 female voices, solo).[5] It takes about six minutes to perform.
Te Deum[edit]
The Ambrosian Hymn Te Deum is scored for two four-part choirs, a short soprano solo and large orchestra, adding cor anglais and bass clarinet to the orchestra of the Stabat Mater, but without harp.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Quadshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Quads
The Quads were a new wave band from Birmingham, England, active in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Their 1979 single "There Must Be Thousands" was a favourite of the BBC Radio 1 DJ John Peel, who selected it as his "single of the decade!"[1]

FOUR TIMES FOUR ACTUALLY EQUALS 16- HE LEFT OUT THE FOURTH QUADRANT

4×4=12 is the fifth studio album by Canadian record producer and DJ deadmau5, released internationally on 6 December 2010 by Virgin Records and a day later in the United States by Ultra Records and mau5trap Recordings. The album's title refers to a miscalculation made by deadmau5 on his Ustream channel, where he mistakenly said that his live setup of four banks of four "equals twelve".[1] The album received a nomination at the 54th Grammy Awards for Best Dance/Electronica Album.
FOUR MAIN AUDIO ELEMENTS

The process takes place on a mix stage, typically in a studio or theater, once the picture elements are edited into a final version. Normally the engineer will mix four main audio elements: speech (dialogue, ADR, voice-overs, etc.), ambience (or atmosphere), sound effects, and music.
BACHS CROSS MELODY
https://readtiger.com/wkp/en/Cruciform
Cruciform melody
In music, a melody of four pitches where a straight line drawn between the outer pair bisects a straight line drawn between the inner pair, thus forming a cross (as in the red lines in the example to the right). In its simplest form, the cruciform melody is a changing tone, where the melody ascends or descends by step, skips below or above the first pitch, then returns to the first pitch by step. Often representative of the Christian cross, such melodies are cruciform in their retrogrades or inversions. Johann Sebastian Bach, whose last name may be represented in tones through a musical cryptogram known as the BACH motif that is a cruciform melody, employed the device extensively. The subject of the fugue in c-sharp minor from The Well-Tempered Clavier Book I is cruciform. See also: Cross motif.
FRANZ LISZT USED CROSS MOTIF
http://www.wikiwand.com/en/Cross_motif
In music, the cross motif is a motif.
A motif (Crux fidelis) was used by Franz Liszt to represent the Christian cross ('tonisches Symbol des Kreuzes' or tonic symbol of the cross) and taken from Gregorian melodies.[1]
Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky associated a motif with the crucifixion, himself, and Tristan, a variation of which first appears in mm.1-2 of his Pathétique Symphony.[2] Tchaikovsky identified with and associated the cross-motif with "star-cross'd lovers" in general, such as in Romeo and Juliet.[2]

FOUR BY FOUR BY FOUR LINES- (first two lines similar- then third and fourth different- first two are the duality third is triad fourth is transcendent fourth)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deck_the_Halls
Variants[edit]
Pennsylvania School Journal, 1877
A variation of the lyrics appears in the December 1877 issue of the Pennsylvania School Journal.[8] This version, in which there is no longer any reference to drinking, runs as follows:[9]
Deck the hall with boughs of holly,
'Tis the season to be jolly,
Don we now our gay apparel,
Troll the ancient Christmas carol,
See the blazing yule before us,
Strike the harp and join the chorus.
Follow me in merry measure,
While I tell of Christmas treasure,
Fast away the old year passes,
Hail the new, ye lads and lasses!
Sing we joyous all together,
Heedless of the wind and weather,
An identical printing appeared four years later in The Franklin Square Song Collection.[10]
The pluralizing of the title of the carol to "Deck the Halls" is found as early as 1892.[11]
Other common alterations change "Christmas" to "Yule" or "Yuletide" in various locations where it appears. For example, "Christmas carol" may be changed to "Yuletide carol".
Melody[edit]
Melody of "Deck the Hall", from John Hullah, The Song Book (1866)
The melody of "Deck the Hall" is taken from "Nos Galan" ("New Year's Eve"), a traditional Welsh New Year's Eve carol published in 1794, although it is much older.[1] The music is in AABA form.[12]
Variants[edit]
The Pennsylvania version from 1877 omits of the third "Fa la la" line (which corresponds to the instrumental flourish in the Welsh original).
The third and fourth "Fa la la" lines sung to the words "Deck the Hall" differ from those sung or played in Wales, the fourth having a more arpeggiated melody in the Welsh version and the third differing in both melody and rhythm.

THE BIG FOUR MUSIC GROUPS 70 PERCENT- FOURTH DIFFERENT
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Record_label
Record labels are often under the control of a corporate umbrella organization called a "music group". A music group is typically owned by an international conglomerate "holding company", which often has non-music divisions as well. A music group controls and consists of music publishing companies, record (sound recording) manufacturers, record distributors, and record labels. As of 2007, the "big four" music groups control about 70% of the world music market, and about 80% of the United States music market.[16][17] Record companies (manufacturers, distributors, and labels) may also constitute a "record group" which is, in turn, controlled by a music group. The constituent companies in a music group or record group are sometimes marketed as being "divisions" of the group.
TETRACHORD FOUNDATION OF GREEK MUSIC
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genus_(music)
Genus (Gr.: γένος [genos], pl. γένη [genē], lat. genus, pl. genera "type, kind") is a term used in the Ancient Greek and Roman theory of music to describe certain classes of intonations of the two movable notes within a tetrachord.
Aristoxenus (in his fragmentary treatise on rhythm) names 'genera' some patterns of rhythm. The tetrachordal concept is also found in the modal theory of Byzantine music and relates to the jins of Arabic music.
KURT KOBAIN ESPECIALLY LIKED SONG CRUCIFIED

"Crucified" is a 1991 song recorded by the Swedish band Army of Lovers. It is the first single from their second album Massive Luxury Overdose and the seventh single to be released by the band. It was released from May 1991 (in Sweden) to February 1992 (in France). A re-edition that features on Massive Luxury Overdose (US Version) was made in 1992. "Crucified" is possibly the best known song released by the band.
It was recorded by Jean-Pierre Barda (vocals, drums), Alexander Bard (vocals, computer) and La Camilla (vocals, bass) who also feature in the videoclip. The two remixes available on the CD maxi and vinyl 12" maxi are made by Nuzak.
Kurt Cobain of the hugely successful alternative rock group Nirvana praised the band in his posthumously published journals, but specifically the song "Crucified."[1]

Very large bore (>= 0.750 inch) sousaphones, with oversized bells as large as 32 inches (81 cm) in diameter, were made by Conn ("Grand Jumbo" [46K (3-valve) & 48K (4-valve)]) and King ("Jumbo" [1265 (3- & 4-valve versions)] & "Giant" [1270 (3-valve) & 1271 (4-valve)]) in the mid-1920s and 1930s, and by Martin, York, & Buescher, but they disappeared from the catalogs during the Depression or at the onset of World War II. Because of their weight and cost, few were made and even fewer survive, especially the 4-valve models.

Four (Acts of Love) is the sixth studio album by Australian singer-songwriter Mick Harvey - and his second since leaving Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds. It was released in June 2013 under Mute Records. The 14 tracks make up a song cycle, bookended by "Praise the Earth (Wheels of Amber and Gold)" and "Praise the Earth (An Ephemeral Play)". The album includes eclectic covers including The Saints' punk "The Story of Love", P. J. Harvey's "Glorious" - she also duets with Harvey on the track - and Van Morrison's "The Way Young Lovers Do" off the classic Astral Weeks.
IN COMMON PRACTICE PRRASES ARE FOUR BARS OR MEASURES LONG
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phrase_(music_theory)
In common practice phrases are often four bars or measures long[12] culminating in a more or less definite cadence.[13] A phrase will end with a weaker or stronger cadence, depending on whether it is an antecedent phrase or a consequent phrase, the first or second half of a period.
16 TRACKS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multitrack_recording
The TASCAM 85 16B analog tape recorder can record 16 tracks of audio on 1-inch (2.54cm) tape. Professional analog units of 24 tracks on 2-inch tape were common, with specialty tape heads providing 16 or even 8 tracks on the same tape width, for greater fidelity.
The Beach Boys' Pet Sounds also made innovative use of multitracking with 8-track machines of the day (circa 1965).[2] Motown also began recording with 8-track machines in 1965 before moving to 16-track machines in mid-1969.
ATALLI FOUR STAGES MUSIC

Attali's Four Stages of Music[edit]
Attali believes that music has gone through four distinct cultural stages in its history: Sacrificing, Representing, Repeating, and a fourth cultural stage which could roughly be called Post-Repeating. These stages are each linked to a certain "mode of production"; that is to say, each of these stages carries with it a certain set of technologies for producing, recording and disseminating music, and also concomitant cultural structures that allow for music's transmission and reception.

carl orff fortuna
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carmina_Burana_(Orff)
Much of the compositional structure is based on the idea of the turning Fortuna Wheel. The drawing of the wheel found on the first page of the Burana Codex includes four phrases around the outside of the wheel:
"Regnabo, Regno, Regnavi, Sum sine regno". (I shall reign, I reign, I have reigned, I am without a realm).
Within each scene, and sometimes within a single movement, the wheel of fortune turns, joy turning to bitterness, and hope turning to grief. "O Fortuna", the first poem in the Schmeller edition, completes this circle, forming a compositional frame for the work through being both the opening and closing movements.

MOZART USED HIS FIRST FOUR NOTES
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Missa_Pange_lingua#Influence
Building on Josquin's fugal treatment of the Pange Lingua hymn's third line in the Kyrie of the Missa Pange Lingua, the "Do-Re-Fa-Mi-Re-Do"-theme became one of the most famous in music history. Simon Lohet,[11] Michelangelo Rossi,[12] François Roberday,[13] Johann Caspar Ferdinand Fischer,[14] Johann Jakob Froberger,[15][16] Johann Caspar Kerll,[17] Johann Sebastian Bach,[18] and Johann Fux wrote fugues on it, and the latter's extensive elaborations in the Gradus ad Parnassum[19] made it known to every aspiring composer—among them Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, who used its first four notes as the fugal subject for the last movement of his Symphony #41, the Jupiter Symphony.[20]
FOUR SINGERS FOUR ANTHEMS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zadok_the_Priest
Sang by four singers..Part of the traditional content of British coronations, the texts for all four anthems were picked by Handel—a personal selection from the most accessible account of an earlier coronation, that of James II in 1685.[4] The text is a translation of the traditional antiphon, Unxerunt Salomonem,[5] itself derived from the biblical account of the anointing of Solomon. These words have been used in every English, and later British, coronation since that of King Edgar at Bath Abbey in 973.[6] An earlier setting had been written by Henry Lawes for the coronation of King Charles II.[7]
FOUR HOLES
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divje_Babe_Flute
The probability that four randomly placed holes would appear in line in a recognizable musical scale is very low according to an analysis made by Canadian musicologist Bob Fink in 2000.[22] Responding to the D'Errico carnivore-origin hypothesis, Turk pointed out that the features "common" between the carnivore-origin artifact and other chewed bones studied by D'Errico (see "Hole shape" below) do not include the alignment of the holes.
Bob Fink claimed in his essay[28] in 1997, that the bone's holes were "consistent with four notes of the diatonic scale" (do, re, mi, fa) based on the spacing of those four holes. The spacing of the holes on a modern diatonic flute (minor scale) are unique, and not evenly spaced. In essence, Fink said, they are like a simple fingerprint. The Divje Babe bone's holes matched those spacings very closely to a series of note-holes in a minor scale.
Nowell and Chase wrote in Studies In Music Archaeology III that the juvenile bear bone was too short to play those four holes in tune to any diatonic series of tones and half-tones.[27] (Fink had suggested there may have originally been a mouthpiece extension added to the bone before it was broken.)

FOUR PIECES
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miscellaneous_solo_piano_compositions_(Rachmaninoff)
The Four Pieces of 1887 are perhaps Rachmaninoff's first comprehensive works. Each has a clear aim and method to attain it, and all unfold with a fluency significantly more advanced than that shown in the previous nocturnes. The opening Romance, in F-sharp minor, harks back to Frédéric Chopin's tenderness. The E-flat minor Prelude is an unremarkable but well-thought out piece. The third, a Mélodie in E major, is modestly expressive, but the Gavotte in D major is, although repetitive, the most energetic and vigorous piece. These were published posthumously in Moscow in 1948, without an opus number.[4]
In 1890, after vacationing at Ivanovka, his family's summer residence, Rachmaninoff wrote a letter to Natalia Skalon, a family friend in Moscow, reporting that he had to write a fugue for Arensky's class, "an unpleasant circumstance however you look at it." It turned out to resemble a canon more than a fugue, however, and was published in 1949 as Canon in E minor. Although written as an assignment, the piece conveys the impression not of an academic contrapuntal exercise but rather of a vivid outburst. The texture and harmony show enough advancement over his earlier Four Pieces to indicate that he had been sensible not to publish them as his opus 1.[4]

Some parcels involved simply multiplying length by width. But in other, irregular four-sided lots, they had to come up with different approaches, such as multiplying the average of two opposite sides by an adjacent side.

Sixty Fourth Note, hemidemisemi quaver
As a young music student I never tired of the name hemidemisemiquaver, and for this, if nothing else, I am glad I learned the UK version of the note names rather than the US version. Hemidemisemiquaver just sounds so much more fun than Sixty-fourth note! The Sixty-fourth note has 4 flags and is the shortest note in general notational use. It may also be beamed together. The name hemidemisemiquaver actually makes sense if you look at it. Each part of the name is the word for 'half' in Greek (hem), French (Demi) and Latin (Semi). So a hemidemisemiquaver is half of a half of a half of a quaver (eighth note)... i.e., a Sixty-fourth note!

FOUR SUBJECT THEORY- TRANSCENDENT FOURTH
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Art_of_Fugue
Many scholars, including Gustav Nottebohm (1881), Wolff and Davitt Moroney, have argued that the piece was intended to be a quadruple fugue, with the opening theme of Contrapunctus I to be introduced as the fourth subject. The title Fuga a 3 soggetti, in Italian rather than Latin, was not given by the composer but by CPE Bach, and Bach's obituary actually makes mention of "a draft for a fugue that was to contain four themes in four voices". The combination of all four themes would bring the entire work to a fitting climax. Wolff also suspected that Bach might have finished the fugue on a lost page, called "fragment X", on which the composer attempted to work out the counterpoint between the four subjects.[citation needed] The 2016 completion by pianist Kimiko Douglass-Ishizaka rejects the fourth subject theory, opting instead to develop the extant materials in the fugue to completion.[10]
A modern example originating in Communist Hungary demonstrates the congregational character of St John Passion. In the early 1950s musicians were allowed to play church music only in the frame of liturgy. However, the St John Passion is an almost complete Lutheran liturgy, focused on the Evangelium. Hence, by inserting four missing features, the whole Passion could be performed as if it were part of the liturgy.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St_John_Passion
(1) Each year the concert begins with "In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.", announced by the priest; this is the start of a Lutheran liturgy.
(2) Between the first and second part of the Passion, the priest gives a very short sermon, intended to be understood even by non-believers.
(3) The congregation prays the Pater noster together, after Jesus' death "Und neiget das Haupt und verschied." and before the aria-chorale "Mein teurer Heiland, lass dich fragen" .
(4) At the end, the Aaron blessing is given by the priest: "The LORD bless you, and keep you; the LORD make His face shine on you, and be gracious to you; the LORD lift up His countenance on you, and give you peace." (Numbers 6:24–26).
SIXTEEN VOICES

The Akai S1000 (1988) was possibly the most popular 16-bit 44.1 kHz stereo sampler of its time. It featured 16-voices, up to 32 MB of memory, and 24-bit internal processing, including a digital filter (18 dB/octave), an LFO, and two ADSR envelope generators (for amplitude and filtering). The S1000 also offered up to 8 different loop points. Additional functions included Autolooping, Crossfade Looping, Loop in Release (which cycles through the loop as the sound decays), Loop Until Release (which cycles through the loop until the note begins its decay), Reverse and Time Stretch (version 1.3 and higher).
STANDARD SET FOUR
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timpani
A standard set of timpani (sometimes called a console) consists of four drums: roughly 32 inches (81 cm), 29 inches (74 cm), 26 inches (66 cm), and 23 inches (58 cm) in diameter.[13] The range of this set is roughly D2 to A3. A great majority of the orchestral repertoire can be played using these four drums. However, contemporary composers have written for extended ranges. Igor Stravinsky specifically writes for a piccolo timpano in The Rite of Spring, tuned to B3. A piccolo drum is typically 20 inches (51 cm) in diameter and can reach pitches up to C4.

FOUR GREEN FIELDS FOUR PROVINCES OF IRELAND
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_Green_Fields
Four Green Fields
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article is about the folk-song. For the stained glass art work, see My Four Green Fields.
Four Green Fields is a 1967 folk song by Irish musician Tommy Makem, described in the New York Times as a "hallowed Irish leave-us-alone-with-our-beauty ballad."[1] Of Makem's many compositions, it has become the most familiar, and is part of the common repertoire of Irish folk musicians.[2]
Content and meaning[edit]
The song is about Ireland (personified as an “old woman”) and its four provinces (represented by “green fields”), one of which remains occupied (”taken”) by the British (the “strangers”) despite the best efforts of the Irish people (her “sons”), who died trying to defend them. Its middle stanza is a description of the violence and deprivation experienced by the Irish, including the people in Northern Ireland. At the end of the song, one of her fields still shows the promise of new growth:
"But my sons have sons, as brave as were their fathers;
My fourth green field will bloom once again," said she.
The song is interpreted as an allegorical political statement regarding the constitutional status of Northern Ireland. The four fields are seen as the Provinces of Ireland with Ulster being the "field" that remained part of the United Kingdom after the Irish Free State separated. The old woman is seen as a traditional personification of Ireland herself (see Kathleen Ni Houlihan). The words spoken by the woman in Makem's song are taken directly from "Cathleen ni Houlihan", an early play by W. B. Yeats.
Background[edit]
The concept of Four Green Fields representing the four provinces of Ireland had been used before, having been previously used in the 1939 stained glass work My Four Green Fields by Evie Hone.
Makem frequently described the song as having been inspired by a drive through the "no man's land" adjoining Northern Ireland, where he saw an old woman tending livestock. She was oblivious to the political boundaries that loomed so large in the public's eye; the land was older than the argument, and she didn't care what was shown on the map.
Makem commonly sang the song as an encore.

It is her first release since the greatest hits compilation Ultimate Kylie (2004), and her first studio album since Body Language (2003). Work on the album began following Minogue's gradual recovery from breast cancer and subsequent radiotherapy treatment. Her cancer, which was diagnosed in May 2005, resulted in the postponement of Showgirl: The Greatest Hits Tour midway through its run. Minogue resumed the tour in late 2006, in the midst of recording X, and was completed later in the following year. The album introduced new American and European producers including Bloodshy & Avant, Guy Chambers, Calvin Harris and Freemasons.

"4 Times" (stylized as "4 TIMES") is the 50th single by pop/R&B singer Koda Kumi. It was released on August 17, 2011 and debuted at #6, remaining on the Oricon charts for nine consecutive weeks. In commemoration of it being the fiftieth single since her debut, the single contained four a-sides, making it her first since 4 hot wave (2006).
The single came in four editions: CD, CD+DVD, CD+QLIX Digital Camera and CD+50 Postcards BOX Set. The latter two only carried the song "Poppin' love cocktail feat. TEEDA."
The CD and CD+DVD editions contained all four tracks with interludes and the four music videos corresponding to the a-sides. The CD+Qlix Digital Camera and CD+50 Postcards Box Set editions only came with "Poppin' love cocktail" on the CD.[16] The Qlix digital camera contained a unique cover design, with red polka dots on a black background, along with "Koda Kumi Summer 2011" written in white.[17] The fifty postcards included in the box set were promotional photos from all fifty singles she had released up to 4 Times.

FOUR ELEMENTS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classical_elements_in_popular_culture
The Alchemy Index is Thrice's fifth studio recording, a four-disc concept album that was split between two releases, the first in October 2007 and the second in April 2008. The band originally planned to release four discs at once, each disc with six tracks representing one of the four classical elements: Fire, Water, Earth, and Air.
Recorded in guitarist Teppei Teranishi's house in Orange, "Alchemy" is full of experimentation. Inspired by Radiohead, Botch, Pelican and ISIS among others, Thrice has produced an effort that can be blisteringly heavy and melodically serene, as evidenced by the sludgy baritone guitar work of "Fire" and the sampled drums, synthesizers and piano on "Water." Kensrue said "Earth," recorded to sound as if the listener was in the room where it was being played, features acoustic guitars, upright bass, banjos, piano, tambourine and some horns. Air, the singer said, is the most dynamic and ties the other three records together.[9]
The final song on each disc is written in the form of a sonnet, depicting the relationship of man with each of the particular elements. Each of these songs is in iambic pentameter, with a concluding rhyming couplet. These final couplets also contain the same vocal melody and chord progression as each other, although they are in different keys. The Artwork for the Album was designed by Dustin Kensrue.

There is no album based on air, as the band dropped this concept with their fifth album The Hunter.

Λιχανὸς ὑπάτων [D] is [the φθόγγος of] the autentus protus and its plagal which are [tonus] I and II, ὑπάτη μέσων [E] of the autentus deuterus and its plagal which are [tonus] III and IV, παρυπάτῃ μέσων [F] of the autentus tritus and its plagal which are [tonus] V and VI, λιχανὸς μέσων [G] of the autentus tetrardus and its plagal which are [tonus] VII and VIII, for the reason, that these four very present ones surround necessarily each melody, so that they, however they might be, can be reduced to them. These four [φθόγγοι] are called 'finales', since in all those [melodies] which are sung, they are perceived as their end.
4-beat (also known as hardcore or happy hardcore) is a breakbeat style of music that emerged around 1993. It evolved from breakbeat hardcore emanating from the United Kingdom rave scene. Due to the sheer scale of the United Kingdom rave scene, the popularity of this particular music was largely limited to England where it was almost exclusively produced and played.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4-beat
Typical characteristics of 4-beat are for compositions to be around a tempo of 150 to 170 BPM (beats per minute). At the core of these compositions would be a fast looped, sometimes complex rolling sampled breakbeat, along with a combined bass drum every four beats to the bar - hence the name of 4-beat.
While ambiguous as a term, 4-beat only indicated that this style - unlike jungle music and its earlier breakbeat hardcore predecessor - used a common if somewhat insignificant four beats to the bar bass drum complementing the obligatory breakbeats. 4-beat does not mean it was void of breakbeats - a common error assumed by most.
Several record labels including Impact, Techstep Records (London) and United Dance Recordings, displayed the 4-beat logo on their artwork alongside the "recognised form of 4-beat" slogan. This logo may also have been used on records to easily distinguish this and jungle music in record shops.
FOUR SOUND CHANNELS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amiga
The sound chip, named Paula, supports four PCM-sample-based sound channels (two for the left speaker and two for the right) with 8-bit resolution for each channel and a 6-bit volume control per channel. The analog output is connected to a low-pass filter, which filters out high-frequency aliases when the Amiga is using a lower sampling rate (see Nyquist frequency). The brightness of the Amiga's power LED is used to indicate the status of the Amiga's low-pass filter. The filter is active when the LED is at normal brightness, and deactivated when dimmed (or off on older A500 Amigas). On Amiga 1000 (and first Amiga 500 and Amiga 2000 model), the power LED had no relation to the filter's status, and a wire needed to be manually soldered between pins on the sound chip to disable the filter. Paula can read directly from the system's RAM, using direct memory access (DMA), making sound playback without CPU intervention possible.
Although the hardware is limited to four separate sound channels, software such as OctaMED uses software mixing to allow eight or more virtual channels, and it was possible for software to mix two hardware channels to achieve a single 14-bit resolution channel by playing with the volumes of the channels in such a way that one of the source channels contributes the most significant bits and the other the least.
A quadruple reed is a type of reed by means of which the sound is originated in various wind instruments. The term "quadruple reed" comes from the fact that there are four pieces of dried palm leaf vibrating against each other, in pairs. A quadruple reed, such as the Thai pinai, operates in a similar way as the double reed and produces a timbre similar to the oboe.[1] The Arabic pii chawaa is, "sometimes described as having a double reed though this is actually folded yet again, creating four layers of reed and thus requiring considerable lung power to play".[2]
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sralai
Instruments which use quadruple reeds[edit]
Pi (Thailand)[3][4][5]
Pui' Pui' (Makassar, Indonesia)
Serunai (Malaysia)[6][7]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadruple_reed
Pi (Thai: ปี่, pronounced [pìː]) is the generic term for any of a variety of quadruple reed oboes used in the traditional music of Thailand, piphat. It is very similar in construction and playing technique to the Cambodian sralai.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pi_(instrument)
This tubular instrument gradually broadens towards the lower end. It usually has between six and nine holes. It employs one set of quadruple reeds, making it a quadruple reed woodwind. By controlling the breath, various tunes can be played on it.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shehnai
The sralai (Khmer: ស្រឡៃ) is a wind instrument used in the pinpeat of Cambodia. Its quadruple reed is made of palm leaf, and its body has a slightly conical bore. Its cousin, the Western oboe, has a double reed and a conical bore. The pinpeat instruments tune to the sralai's pitch, and the player must learn circular breathing to play continuously without stopping for breath. The sralai is very similar in construction and playing technique to the Thai pi.
On The Who's 1979 tour, only four songs were played live: "Sister Disco", "Music Must Change", "Trick of the Light", and "Who Are You". On that tour, "Sister Disco" was played quite close to the studio version, except that the guitar outro was changed from country-style to a more bluesy one, except in 1989, where Townshend used acoustics, and 2008–09, where he could switch his Fender from 'electric mode' to 'acoustic mode'. Townshend actually stated in an interview that this was one of his least favourite songs to perform live (the other being "Dreaming from the Waist"), as Daltrey encouraged Townshend to share a microphone whilst harmonizing on the final vocal tag, evoking a camaraderie Townshend stated didn't really exist.[16] It was played in the tours of 1979, 1980, 1981, 1982, 1989, 2008 and 2009. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Who_Are_You

The Yardbirds played their final gig in July 1968 at Luton College of Technology in Bedfordshire.[5] They were still committed to several concerts in Scandinavia, so drummer Jim McCarty and vocalist Keith Relf authorised Page and bassist Chris Dreja to use "the Yardbirds" name to fulfill the band's obligations. Page and Dreja began putting a new line-up together. Page's first choice for the lead singer was Terry Reid, but Reid declined the offer and suggested Robert Plant, a singer for the Band of Joy and Hobbstweedle.[6] Plant eventually accepted the position, recommending former Band of Joy drummer John Bonham.[7] Jones inquired about the vacant position at the suggestion of his wife after Dreja dropped out of the project to become a photographer.[8][nb 1] Page had known Jones since they were both session musicians and agreed to let him join as the final member.[10]

The four played together for the first time in a room below a record store on Gerrard Street in London.[11] Page suggested that they attempt "Train Kept A-Rollin'", originally a jump blues song popularised in a rockabilly version by Johnny Burnette, which had been covered by the Yardbirds. "As soon as I heard John Bonham play", Jones recalled, "I knew this was going to be great ... We locked together as a team immediately".[12] Before leaving for Scandinavia, the group took part in a recording session for the P. J. Proby album, Three Week Hero. The album's track "Jim's Blues", with Plant on harmonica, was the first studio track to feature all four future members of Led Zeppelin.[13]

Led Zeppelin released their fourth album on 8 November 1971. In response to the treatment they had received from critics, particularly after Led Zeppelin III, the band decided to release the fourth album with no title, though it is variously referred to as Led Zeppelin IV, Untitled, IV, or, due to the four symbols appearing on the record label, as Four Symbols, Zoso or Runes
Bonham asked to stop for breakfast, where he downed four quadruple vodkas (between 16 and 24 oz.), with a ham roll. After taking a bite of the ham roll he said to his assistant, "breakfast". He continued to drink heavily after arriving at the studio. The rehearsals were halted late that evening and the band retired to Page's house—the Old Mill House in Clewer, Windsor. After midnight, Bonham, who had fallen asleep, was taken to bed and placed on his side
A film of the O2 performance, Celebration Day, premiered on 17 October 2012 and was released on home video on 19 November.[113] The film grossed $2 million in one night, and the live album peaked at number 4 and 9 in the UK and US, respectively.[114][115][23] Following the film's premiere, Page revealed that he had been remastering the band's discography.[116] The first wave of albums, Led Zeppelin, Led Zeppelin II, and Led Zeppelin III, were released on 2 June 2014.[117] The second wave of albums, Led Zeppelin IV and Houses of the Holy, were released on 27 October 2014.[118] Physical Graffiti was released on 23 February 2015, almost exactly forty years to the day after the original release.[119] The fourth and final wave of albums, Presence, In Through the Out Door, and Coda, were released on 31 July 2015.[120]

Unsurprisingly, the kids in the audience did as they were told, resulting in a set that may have been sickly fascinating from a non-musical point of view, but ended in shambles, with Morrison reportedly striking a crucifixion pose for three solid minutes after the rest of the Doors had cleared the stage. As far as Zeppelin singer Robert Plant was concerned, it made for an appalling spectacle.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_on_the_floor_(music)
Four-on-the-floor (or four-to-the-floor) is a rhythm pattern used in disco and electronic dance music. It is a steady, uniformly accented beat in 4/4 time in which the bass drum is hit on every beat (1, 2, 3, 4) in common time.[1] This was popularized in the disco music of the 1970s[2] and the term four-on-the-floor was widely used in that era: it originated[citation needed] with the pedal-operated, drum-kit bass drum. Earl Young is seen as the inventor of the disco style of rock drumming (in Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes's "The Love I Lost" from 1973), as he was the first to make extensive and distinctive use of the hi-hat cymbal throughout the playing time of an R & B recording.[3]
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number_Pieces
There are 53 time brackets, each with a single sound produced on one, two, three or four strings. This Number Piece is microtonal. It may be performed with 108.
Only flexible time brackets are used. The violin part is microtonal and consists for the most part of long sounds. It is divided into three movements. The piano/shō part contains mostly short sounds and is in four movements.
The four performers have 22, 16, 10 and 15 time brackets respectively. Instruments are chosen by the performers; the time brackets only contain numerals to refer to different instruments.
Similar in structure to a symphony, the work is in four movements (A, B, C, D) with silence occurring at the start, between each movement, and at the end. The percussion instruments are "distinguished from one another but not named" and should be "very resonant." The piece may also be performed as a cello concerto with One8 (109a), as a shō concerto with any three movements of One9 (109b), and as a double concerto for shō and five conch shells with any three movements of Two3 (110).

FOUR STAGES OF MUSIC
https://en.wikipedia.org/…/Noise:_The_Political_Economy_of_…
Attali's Four Stages of Music[edit]
Attali believes that music has gone through four distinct cultural stages in its history: Sacrificing, Representing, Repeating, and a fourth cultural stage which could roughly be called Post-Repeating. These stages are each linked to a certain "mode of production"; that is to say, each of these stages carries with it a certain set of technologies for producing, recording and disseminating music, and also concomitant cultural structures that allow for music's transmission and reception.
SOOPERGROOP FOUR ACTS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bonnaroo_Music_Festival
In 2013, Bonnaroo brought its stage to YouTube.[24] In conjunction with talent and Bonnaroo fans, Bonnaroo and Los Angeles production company Kids At Play[25] created Soopergroop – a band created from four musical acts brought together over four days to create and share original works at Bonnaroo 2013 and launch Bonnaroo’s YouTube channel.[26] The channel’s title, Bonnaroo 365, refers to the celebration’s intention to be part of fans’ daily lives. YouTube’s position with musician and fans – amassing 1.9 billion views of music videos in 2012[27] – made it an essential platform for the music festival.
Soopergroop[28] talent was chosen for their musicality and YouTube audiences. They met for the first time at Bonnaroo in June. Their work process over the four-day festival was the subject of an eight-part documentary series by Kids At Play released on Bonnaroo’s YouTube Channel.
The artists were: �
Soul Khan, an American songwriter, rapper and retired battle rapper from Brooklyn, N.Y..
Jenny Suk, known as JENI, singer and songwriter from the San Francisco Bay Area.

FOUR PIECES
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_Pieces_for_Piano,_Op._119_(Brahms)
The Four Pieces for Piano (German: 'Klavierstücke') Op. 119, are four character pieces for piano composed by Johannes Brahms in 1893. The collection is the last composition for solo piano by Brahms. Together with the six pieces from Op. 118, Op. 119 was premiered in London in January 1894.

Background[edit]
The Four Pieces for Piano were published in 1892 and 1893 along with three other collections of smaller piano pieces: the Seven Fantasias Op. 116, Three Intermezzos Op. 117, Six Pieces for Piano Op. 118, and Four Pieces for Piano Op. 119.
FOUR PIECES
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ballades,_Op._10_(Brahms)
The Ballades, Op. 10 are lyrical piano pieces written by Johannes Brahms during his youth. They were dated 1854 and were dedicated to his friend Julius Otto Grimm. Their composition coincided with the beginning of the composer's lifelong affection for Clara Schumann, the wife of Robert Schumann, who was helping Brahms launch his career. Frédéric Chopin had written the last of his famous ballades only 12 years earlier, but Brahms approached the genre differently from Chopin, choosing to take its origin in narrative poetry more literally.[1]
Brahms's ballades are arranged in two pairs of two, the members of each pair being in parallel keys. The first ballade was inspired by a Scottish poem "Edward" found in a collection Stimmen der Völker in ihren Liedern compiled by Johann Gottfried Herder. It is also one of the best examples of Brahms's bardic or Ossianic style; its open fifths, octaves, and simple triadic harmonies are supposed to evoke the sense of a mythological past.[2]
No. 1 in D minor. Andante
No. 2 in D major. Andante
No. 3 in B minor. Intermezzo. Allegro
No. 4 in B major. Andante con moto
The tonal center of each ballade conveys an interconnectedness between the four pieces: the first three each include the key signature of the ballade that follows it somewhere as a tonal center, and the fourth ends in the key signature of D major/B minor despite cadencing in B major.
BRAHMS HAD FOUR SYMPHONIES
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symphony_No._3_(Brahms)
The premiere performance was given on 2 December 1883 by the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra, under the direction of Hans Richter. It is the shortest of Brahms' four symphonies; a typical performance lasts between 30 and 40 minutes.

A later decision recalled two members from each group to form the four-piece group Rhythmix, sending them through to the "judges' houses" section.[13]

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hagiopolitan_Octoechos
The first attempt to connect Ancient Greek music theory (as expressed in Boethius) and the theory of plainchant can be found in the treatise De harmonica institutione by Hucbald of Saint-Amand Abbey, written by the end of the 9th century, in which the author addressed his treatise explicitly to cantors and not to mathematicians,[21] whereas the reduction of 4 "finales" which made up the tetrachord D—E—F—G, was already done in Carolingian times in the treatises Musica and Scolica enchiriadis. Musica enchiriadis is also the only Latin treatise which testifies to the presence of a tetraphonic tone system, represented by 4 Dasia-signs and therefore called "Dasia system", and even the practical use of transposition (metabolē kata tonon) in plainchant, called "absonia"

Left Eye didnt sing on backgrounds (at least from CSC - 3D ..only maybe their songs that had lil chants). TLC always had a "fourth member" in the studio by the name of Debra Killings,that ppl dont know about. She's done ALOT of background vocals for TLC's projects. Her voice blends well with T-Boz and Chili's,its more polished and gives them a "fuller" sound,vocally....even to the point to where sometimes one of the girls voice wont even be present in the background. For instance their song "Take Our Time" -the background vocals are done only by Chili and Debra Killings. T-Boz and Left Eye aren't present on that song AT ALL even tho it sounds like T-Boz is singing background,nope...its Debra.
CRUCIFORM GUITAR
https://www.metal-archives.com/images/1/3/5/7/1357.jpg
https://www.metal-archives.com/reviews/Metal_Church/Metal_Church/1357/
My first encounter with California's Metal Church probably came around a year after their eponymous debut dropped, the band had achieved some visibility even at the dawn of their career and people were talking about them in my junior high and the neighboring high school where all the cool kids we wanted to be were hanging out. This is more than likely due to their proximity to Metallica, both geographically and by the fact that they were to become label mates once Elektra issued this record; not to mention that both groups wore their genre on their sleeve by picking incredibly obvious, cheesy band names. Though I admit, 'Metal Church' has a spiked hardness about it which resonates down through the ages, the moss-laden cruciform guitar image against the foggy backdrop an iconic cover despite the fact it looks like it popped out of some awful 80s horror film.

TETRAHEDRON IS FOUR- FERTILIZATION CELLS MAKE TETRAHEDRON
After fertilisation occurs in a living being, the fertilised egg divides to form two cells, then the cells divide again, going from two to four in a binary sequence - 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, etc.
The first four cells form a tetrahedron in a sphere and the apex of this tetrahedron points either to the north pole or the south pole, which probably determines the gender.
Next, the cells divide into eight; they now form one tetrahedron facing up and one tetrahedron facing down; a star tetrahedron in a sphere. This is called the Egg of Life. Every single life on Earth must pass through the Egg of Life stage. Science has recognized that this particular stage of development is different from any other, and it has many unique qualities that don’t occur at any other time in its development.
TWO SETS OF FOUR IMPROMPTUS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impromptus_(Schubert)
Franz Schubert's Impromptus are a series of eight pieces for solo piano composed in 1827. They were published in two sets of four impromptus each: the first two pieces in the first set were published in the composer's lifetime as Op. 90; the second set was published posthumously as Op. 142 in 1839 (with a dedication added by the publisher to Franz Liszt). The third and fourth pieces in the first set were published in 1857 (although the third piece was printed by the publisher in G major, instead of G-flat as Schubert had written it, and remained available only in this key for many years). The two sets are now catalogued as D. 899 and D. 935 respectively. They are considered to be among the most important examples of this popular early 19th-century genre.[1]

THE FOUR SHAPE NOTE SYSTEM
https://fasola.org/introduction/note_shapes.html
The singing of syllables (solmization) to teach students scales & intervals is usually credited to Guido d' Arezzo (11th century, a six syllable system ut, re, mi, fa, sol, la). In England, by Elizabethan times, this system became simplified to four syllables fa, sol, la, and mi.
A singer would be taught to associate the singing of a given syllable with a particular scale degree. For example the major scale would be sung (while singing the syllables) fa, sol, la, fa, sol, la, mi, fa. This technique was transplanted from Great Britain to colonial America long before any change occurred in the conventional roundhead music notation.
The four shape note system used in the Sacred Harp came into being during a whirlwind of American invention. Nothing and no institution was above diddling. This particular shape system was but part of an endless tinkering with music notation that 18th and 19th century Americans indulged in. Little and Smith with the Easy Instructor invented and patented of the four shape note system, but it was but the latest in a long line of experimental music notations . [sidebar on why experiment]
The south was far more resilent in preserving their ways. But even here the long arm of this movement was felt, and thus the seven shaped note system was born. With the exception of the editors of a handful of books Southern shaped note tune compilers largerly accepted the belief that the seven syllable ("one for each note") solmization was superior to the old fashioned fasola approach. Chief among those leading the charge to this trough was "singing Billy Walker" (compiler of the four shape Southern Harmony) with his Christian Harmony. Although a variety of seven shape notations were invented, the emerging standard was created by Jesse Aiken.

Biography[edit]
Guitarist/vocalist Brian O'Hara and best friend guitarist/vocalist Joey Bower (born Joseph Bower, 17 November 1939, Dingle, Liverpool, Lancashire) formed the Two Jays in 1957. The group changed its name to the Four Jays in September 1959 when bass guitarist/singer Billy Hatton and drummer Brian Redman (born 21 June 1941, Huyton, Liverpool, Lancashire) joined the group. The Four Jays played at the Cavern Club on 1 March 1961, nearly three weeks before the Beatles. Rhythm guitarist/singer Mike Millward (ex-the Undertakers) joined the Four Jays in November 1961, followed by drummer/singer Dave Lovelady in September 1962. The band changed its name to the Fourmost in October 1962. On 30 June 1963, the group signed a management contract with Brian Epstein.[1] This led to their being auditioned by George Martin and signed to EMI's Parlophone record label.

BRAHMS HAD FOUR CHAMBER WORKS- THIS ONE HAD FOUR MOVEMENTS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clarinet_Trio_(Brahms)
The Clarinet Trio in A minor, Op. 114 is one of four chamber works composed by Johannes Brahms featuring the clarinet as a primary instrument. It was written in the summer of 1891 for the clarinetist Richard Mühlfeld, and is considered by scholars as part of a rebirth for the composer who in 1890 declared his String Quintet in G Major to be his final work.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piano_four_hands
Piano four hands (French: À quatre mains, German: Zu vier Händen, Vierhändig, Italian: a quattro mani) is a type of piano duet in which the two players play on a single piano.[1] A duet with the players playing separate instruments is generally referred to as a piano duo.[2]
Music written for piano four hands is usually printed so that the part for each player occupies the page which is directly opposite to him. The upper part, for the pianist sitting on the right and with the music on the right side of the page, is called primo, while the lower part, for the pianist on the left, is called secondo.
Original works[edit]
However, the increase of power and variety obtainable by two performers instead of one offers a legitimate inducement to composers to write original music in this form, and the opportunity has been by no means neglected, although cultivated to a less extent than might have been expected.
The earliest known printed works for the pianoforte à quatre mains were published in Dessau about 1782, under the title Drey Sonaten füre Clavier als Doppelstücke fur zwey Personen mit vier Handen von C. H. Müller. However, before this, Ernst Wilhelm Wolf, the musical director at Weimar in 1761, had written one or more sonatas for two performers, which were published after his death. So far as is known these were the first compositions of their kind, although the idea of the employment of two performers (but not on one instrument) may have originated with Johann Sebastian Bach, who wrote three concertos for two harpsichords, three for three, and one for four, all with accompaniment of stringed instruments. But the short compass of the keyboard, which in Bach's time and indeed until about 1770 never exceeded five octaves, was ill-adapted to the association of two performers on the same instrument, and it is doubtless on this account that the earlier composers have left so little music of the kind.
Haydn, Mozart, and Beethoven appear to have had but little inclination for this description of composition. According to Fétis, Haydn wrote but one piece 'à quatre mains,' a divertissement, which was never published (two other sonatas published under his name, op. 81 and 86, are spurious). Of the nine pianoforte duets by Mozart the two finest, the Adagio and Allegro in F minor and the Fantasia in F minor, were originally written for a mechanical organ or musical clock in a Vienna exhibition, and were afterwards arranged for piano by an unknown hand. Beethoven left but one sonata, op. 6, three marches, op. 45, and two sets of variations, none of which are of any great importance.
Among the best-known composers, Schubert made the fullest use of the original effects possible to music "à quatre mains." His compositions include the Sonata in C major for piano four-hands, D 812, the Divertissement à la hongroise, D 818, and Fantasia in F minor for piano four-hands, D 940. In addition to these he wrote fourteen marches, six polonaises, four sets of variations, three rondos, one sonata, one set of dances, and four separate pieces.
Among the German Romantic composers, the four-hand works of Schumann and Brahms are the most interesting. Mendelssohn wrote only one original work of the kind, although he himself arranged some of his orchestral works and also his Octet, and the Variations in B-flat major for piano, op. 83, in this form. Besides writing a number of small pieces for two performers, Schumann made a very novel and successful experiment in his Spanische Liebeslieder (op. 138), which consist of ten pieces for four voices, being songs, duets, and a quartet, with piano four-hand accompaniment. An analogous idea was later carried out by Brahms, who wrote two sets of waltzes for four hands and four voices (Liebeslieder Walzer, Op. 52, and Neue Liebeslieder, Op 65). Among his instrumental four-hands pieces, the best-known is 16 Waltzes, Op 39. A well-known piece by a French Romantic composer is the Dolly Suite by Fauré.
Organ four hands[edit]
Organ music for four hands is very rare, although the experiment has been made by Hesse, Höpner, and especially by Julius André, who has written twenty-four pieces for two performers on the organ; but no increased effect appears to be obtainable from such an arrangement which can at all compensate for its practical inconvenience.
THE SERIES OF FOUR UNFINISHED SYMPHONIES
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symphony,_D_615_(Schubert)
This sketch is the first of a series of four unfinished symphonies – D 615, D 708A, D 729 (the seventh), and D 759 (the eighth) – that are milestones in Schubert's symphonic development between the sixth and ninth symphonies. These four symphonies are in varying states of completion: D 615 has incomplete sketches of only two movements (the allegro and the finale), D 708A has incomplete sketches of all four movements, D 729 is structurally complete but was not fully orchestrated, and D 759 has the first two movements complete and orchestrated and a third movement in an incomplete piano sketch. Previously, his fourth symphony had had Beethovenian influence (although it is more reminiscent of the earlier Sturm und Drang movement), his fifth Mozartian influence, and his sixth Rossinian influence (Schubert had listened to Rossini's music before writing his sixth symphony and was extremely impressed, then incorporating aspects of Rossini's style into his music).
After writing the sixth symphony, Schubert experienced a crisis in his symphonic output, as he was not sure about whether he should continue on the path he was on in the sixth symphony of being influenced by Rossini. There is thus some Beethovenian influence present, which would persist throughout his symphonic output, but Schubert soon creates his own style and explores new territory. Additionally, he was still learning how to master instrumental writing, despite having done so for vocal works some years before. His mastery of songwriting was helped by the fact that the words gave hints as to the structure he would use, help that could not come in instrumental writing. This can be seen from the fact that Schubert had written his first six symphonies directly into full orchestral score, without sketching for piano beforehand, but D 615 and D 708A only survive as sketches in piano score. He returned to writing directly into orchestral score for his seventh symphony, although piano sketches exist for the eighth. These four unfinished symphonies thus show how Schubert was, as he stated in a letter from the mid-1820s, preoccupied with "planning a path to [write] a grand symphony [plans he would realize in the ninth symphony]", with his string quartets, octet and these unfinished symphonies as intermediate steps in this plan. The unusually large number of unfinished symphonies on the way to the ninth from the sixth show how preoccupied he was with writing this great symphony, and how important this plan was to him.
FOUR MOVEMENTS FOUR BAR STRUCTURAL UPBEAT
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symphony_No._5_(Schubert)
There are four movements:
Allegro in B♭, in cut (2
2) time.
Andante con moto in E♭, in 6
8 time.
Menuetto. Allegro molto in G minor, in 3
4 time, with a Trio in G major.
Allegro vivace in B♭, in 2
4 time.
This is the first Schubert symphony that does not begin with a slow introduction. What starts the movement is a four-bar structural upbeat similar to the one that begins the finale of his 4th symphony before the main theme starts on bar 5.[3] The main is a simple rising arpeggio with a dotted rhythm that dominates all of the themes of the exposition. The first movement is a slightly unusual sonata form since the recapitulation begins, as in the first movement of Mozart’s sonata facile (and Schubert's 'Trout' Quintet), in the subdominant, not in the main key of the piece as is more usual.
THE FOUR ELEMENTS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Les_quatre_éléments
Les quatre éléments (The Four Elements), is a cycle of four choral pieces by Franz Liszt, to words by Joseph Autran. The cycle was composed in 1844/5; the numbers of the pieces in the Liszt catalogue of Humphrey Searle are S.80a and S.80b (two versions). The title of the cycle was an allusion to the Ancient Greek concept of the four elements - earth, air, water and fire. Liszt also composed an overture for the cycle. Some of the music from the overture and the cycle was later reworked in Liszt's symphonic poem Les préludes (The preludes), which was premiered in 1854.
FOUR WALTZES- THE FOURTH IS DIFFERENT
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mephisto_Waltzes
The Mephisto Waltzes are four waltzes composed by Franz Liszt in 1859-62, 1880–81, 1883 and 1885. Nos. 1 and 2 were composed for orchestra, and later arranged for piano, piano duet and two pianos, whereas 3 and 4 were written for piano only. Of the four, the first is the most popular and has been frequently performed in concert and recorded.[1]
Bagatelle ohne Tonart[edit]
The Bagatelle sans tonalité (Bagatelle without tonality; also Bagatelle ohne Tonart) is sometimes included with Liszt's Mephisto Waltzes. The manuscript bears the title "Fourth Mephisto Waltz"[17] and may have been intended to replace the Fourth Mephisto Waltz when it appeared Liszt might not be able to finish it.[18] Critics point out the similarity in tonal center between these two pieces (D major) as confirmation of their composition shortly after one other in 1885 as well as Liszt's initial intent with the Bagatelle.[19]
FOUR MOVEMENTS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piano_Concerto_No._1_(Liszt)
Franz Liszt composed his Piano Concerto No. 1 in E♭ major, S.124 over a 26-year period; the main themes date from 1830, while the final version is dated 1849. The concerto consists of four movements and lasts approximately 20 minutes. It premiered in Weimar on February 17, 1855, with Liszt at the piano and Hector Berlioz conducting.

In 1841 he wrote two of his four symphonies, No. 1 in B-flat, Op. 38, "Spring" and No. 4 in D minor (the latter, a pioneering essay in 'cyclic form', was performed that year but published only much later after revision and extensive reorchestration as Op. 120).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyknon
Pyknon, Greek: πυκνόν, sometimes also transliterated as pycnon (from Greek: πυκνός close, close-packed, crowded, condensed; Latin: spissus) in the music theory of Antiquity is a structural property of any tetrachord in which a composite of two smaller intervals is less than the remaining (incomposite) interval. The makeup of the pyknon serves to identify the melodic genus (also called "genus of a tetrachord") and the octave species made by compounding two such tetrachords, and the rules governing the ways in which such compounds may be made centre on the relationships of the two pykna involved.

Definition[edit]
The pyknon was an important criterion in the classification of melodic genera (Greek: γένη τῶν μελῳδουμένων). The Greek word πυκνόν is an adjective meaning "close", "compact", "close-packed", or "crowded" (Liddell and Scott 1996). In Ancient Greek music theory, this term is used to describe a pair of intervals within a tetrachord, the sum of which is less than the remainder of the tetrachord (Levin 2007, 413). Although in modern usage, a tetrachord may be any four-note segment of a scale, or indeed any (unordered) collection of four pitch classes, in ancient Greek music theory a tetrachord consists of a four-note segment of the Greater and Lesser Perfect Systems bounded by the interval of a perfect fourth, the outer notes of which remain fixed in all genera and therefore are called "standing notes" (Greek: ἑστῶτες φθόγγοι). The positions of the inner notes vary from one genus to another, for which reason they are called "movable notes" (Mathiesen 1999, 301, 312, 322, 344, 350, et passim; from Greek: κινούμενοι φθόγγοι). In its basic theoretical form, the largest internal of a tetrachord is at the top, and the smallest at the bottom. The existence of a pyknon therefore depends on the uppermost interval being larger than half of a perfect fourth, which occurs only in the chromatic and enharmonic genera. Because the diatonic genus consists of two whole tones and one semitone, no single interval is larger than the other two combined, and so there is no pyknon (Barbera 1984, 229). For this reason, the enharmonic and chromatic genera are sometimes called the "pyknic genera", in order to distinguish them from the diatonic (Solomon 1984, 246).
Theoretical applications[edit]
The notes of the central tetrachord of the system in ascending order are hypate, parhypate, lichanos (or hypermese), and mese. A second tetrachord is added above, after a disjunctive tone, and the corresponding names (together with the interval ratios of the standing tones) are (Chalmers 1990, 4; Mathiesen 1999, 245):
mese (4:3) – nete (2:1) (standing)
lichanos – paranete (movable)
parhypate – trite (movable)
hypate (1:1) – paramese (3:2) (standing)
Although movable, the lichanos must remain above the parhypate, and the paranete above the trite (Mathiesen 1999, 312).
A "composite interval" is one made up of two or more smaller intervals; an "incomposite interval" has no smaller components In these terms, if the composite interval between the hypate and the lichanos (or paramese and paranete) is smaller than the incomposite interval from the lichanos to the mese (or paranete to nete), the three notes in that composite interval are together called a pyknon (Mathiesen 1999, 312). In the diatonic genus, because the composite interval from hypate to lichanos (a minor third) is larger than the remaining incomposite interval from lichanos to mese (a whole tone), the lowest three notes of the diatonic tetrachord are designated apyknon: "not close-packed" (Barbera 1977, 321n11).

THE FOUR NOTE MOTIF IN THE CAN CAN BRAHMS AND BEETHOVEN OFFENBACH

Musicologists more obsessive-compulsive than me have traced the same four-note theme in works by Josef Haydn’s younger brother Michael as well, and Mozart, even at the tender age of 8, was undoubtedly well aware of what the Haydn brothers were up to.
I would argue that the four-note Haydn/Mozart “Jupiter” motive is not a truncation of the older plainsong chant, but an independent entity: the rhythmic profiles are different, and seem in both cases to be intrinsic to the motive.
Finally, it may be amusing (for those who are amused by such things) to indicate four familiar compositions by later composers which seem to use the same motives. In every case the quotation is undoubtedly coincidental!

FOUR SYMBOLS LED ZEPPELIN
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Led_Zeppelin_IV
After the band's previous album Led Zeppelin III received lukewarm reviews from critics, Page decided their fourth album would officially be untitled. This, along with the inner sleeve's design featuring four symbols that represented each band member, led to the album being referred to variously as the Four Symbols logo, Four Symbols, The Fourth Album, Untitled, Runes, The Hermit, and ZoSo (which was derived from Page's symbol).
After the lukewarm, if not confused and sometimes dismissive, critical reaction Led Zeppelin III had received in late 1970, Page decided that the next Led Zeppelin album would not have a title, but would instead feature four hand-drawn symbols on the inner sleeve and record label, each one chosen by the band member it represents.[8] "We decided that on the fourth album, we would deliberately play down the group name, and there wouldn't be any information whatsoever on the outer jacket", Page explained. "Names, titles and things like that do not mean a thing."[10]
The four symbols representing (from left to right);
at the top; Page, Jones
at the bottom; Bonham and Plant
Page stated that he designed his own symbol[8][9] and has never publicly disclosed any reasoning behind it. It has been argued that his symbol appeared as early as 1557 to represent Saturn.[16][17][18] The symbol is sometimes referred to as "ZoSo", though Page has explained that it was not in fact intended to be a word at all.[8] Page was known to be a devotee of Aleister Crowley and his sign resembles a magical sigil. The first three parts of the sigil or symbol also resemble the word "Zos" as found in the magical philosophy of Crowley's associate Austin Osman Spare known as 'Zos vel Thanatos'.
Bassist John Paul Jones' symbol, which he chose from Rudolf Koch's Book of Signs,[8] is a single circle intersecting three vesica pisces (a triquetra). It is intended to symbolise a person who possesses both confidence and competence.[9]
Drummer John Bonham's symbol, the three interlocking (Borromean) rings, was picked by the drummer from the same book.[8] It represents the triad of mother, father and child,[9][19] but, inverted, it also happens to be the logo for Ballantine beer.[9]
Singer Robert Plant's symbol of a feather within a circle was his own design, being based on the sign of the supposed Mu civilisation.[8][9]
Sandy Denny's symbol of three downward-pointing equilateral triangles.
A fifth, smaller symbol chosen by guest vocalist Sandy Denny represents her contribution to "The Battle of Evermore"; the figure, composed of three equilateral triangles, appears on the inner sleeve of the LP, serving as an asterisk.
During Led Zeppelin's tour of the United Kingdom in winter 1971, which took place shortly following the release of the album, the band visually projected the four symbols on their stage equipment. Page's symbol was put onto one of his Marshall amplifiers, Bonham's three interlinked circles adorned the outer skin of his bass drum, Jones had his symbol stencilled onto material which was draped across his Fender Rhodes keyboard, and Plant's feather symbol was painted onto a side speaker PA cabinet. Only Page's and Bonham's symbols were retained for subsequent Led Zeppelin concert tours.[20]

FOUR PART SUITE FOUR NOTE MOTIF
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Love_Supreme
A Love Supreme is a four-part suite, broken up into tracks: "Acknowledgement" (which contains the mantra that gave the suite its name), "Resolution", "Pursuance", and "Psalm". It is intended to be a spiritual album, broadly representative of a personal struggle for purity, and expresses the artist's deep gratitude as he admits to his talent and instrument as being owned not by him but by a spiritual higher power.[1] Coltrane's home in Dix Hills, Long Island, has been suggested as the site of inspiration for A Love Supreme.[1] His exposure to Ahmadiyya Islam has also been suggested as a source of influence.[2] Coltrane plays exclusively tenor on all parts.
The album begins with the bang of a gong (tam-tam), followed by cymbal washes. Jimmy Garrison follows on bass with the four-note motif that structures the entire movement. Coltrane's solo follows. Besides soloing upon variations of the motif, at one point Coltrane repeats the four notes over and over in different transpositions. After 36 repetitions, the motif becomes the vocal chant "A Love Supreme", sung by Coltrane (accompanying himself via overdubs).[3]
Rolling Stone called it a "legendary album-long hymn of praise" and stated: "the indelible four-note theme of the first movement, 'Acknowledgement,' is the humble foundation of the suite. But Coltrane's majestic, often violent blowing (famously described as 'sheets of sound') is never self-aggrandizing. Aloft with his classic quartet..., Coltrane soars with nothing but gratitude and joy. You can't help but go with him."[25] It was widely accepted as a work of deep spirituality and analyzed with religious subtext, although cultural studies scholars Richard W. Santana and Gregory Erickson argued that the "avant-garde jazz suite" could be interpreted as otherwise strictly based on the music being heard.[26]

Andante in E major
Scherzo in A minor
Capriccio in E minor
Fugue in E flat major

Felix Mendelssohn wrote six numbered string quartets which were published during his lifetime:
String Quartet No. 1 in E-flat major, Op. 12 composed in 1829
String Quartet No. 2 in A minor, Op. 13 composed in 1827
String Quartet No. 3 in D major, Op. 44, No. 1 composed in 1838
String Quartet No. 4 in E minor, Op. 44, No. 2 composed in 1837
String Quartet No. 5 in E-flat major, Op. 44, No. 3 composed in 1838
String Quartet No. 6 in F minor, Op. 80 composed in 1847
Mendelssohn also wrote another quartet in E-flat major at the age of 14, just after he had composed his 13 string symphonies. However, the quartet was never published in his lifetime and so was never assigned an opus number.
Mendelssohn's first two numbered quartets were published out of order, whilst his next three quartets were published together as Op. 44 and were all dedicated to Crown Prince Gustavus of Sweden.
Mendelssohn's final string quartet was composed after the death of his sister, which was a devastating blow to Mendelssohn. The quartet was also his last major work, as he died only two months after its completion. The piece was published shortly before his death along with a set of four pieces for string quartet also composed in his final years.

Carnaval, Op. 9, is a work by Robert Schumann for piano solo, written in 1834–1835, and subtitled Scènes mignonnes sur quatre notes (Little Scenes on Four Notes). It consists of 21 short pieces representing masked revelers at Carnival, a festival before Lent. Schumann gives musical expression to himself, his friends and colleagues, and characters from improvised Italian comedy (commedia dell'arte).
The four notes are encoded puzzles, and Schumann predicted that "deciphering my masked ball will be a real game for you."[1] The 21 pieces are connected by a recurring motif. In each section of Carnaval there appears one or both of two series of musical notes. These are musical cryptograms, as follows:
A, E-flat, C, B – signified in German as A-S-C-H
A-flat, C, B – signified in German as As-C-H

Blumenstück features a falling four-note motif that Schumann had previously used to refer to Clara Wieck in Carnaval, Op. 9.[9] Rather than in his manuscript book, Schumann sketched Blumenstück in his Brautbuch; it was offered, along with the song cycle Myrthen, Op. 25, of 1840, as a bridal gift.[10]

FOUR CHARACTER PIECES
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Märchenbilder_(Schumann)
Märchenbilder or Fairy Tale Pictures, for Viola and Piano, Op. 113, was written by Robert Schumann in March 1851. The work is dedicated to the German violinist and conductor Wilhelm Joseph von Wasielewski. It consists of four character pieces and is an original composition featuring the viola from the Romantic period.
FOUR MOVEMENTS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piano_Trio_No._3_(Schumann)
The Piano Trio No. 3 in G minor by Robert Schumann was written in 1851, and is his opus 110. It has four movements:
Bewegt, doch nicht zu rasch in G minor, in 6/8 time (with tempo dotted quarter notes 63 to the minute). In sonata form.
Ziemlich langsam in E-flat major, in 12/8 time and tempo 116 eighth notes to the minute.
Rasch in C minor, in 2/4 time and 138 quarter notes to the minute. A scherzo with two trios, with a tempo marking of Etwas zurückhaltend bis zm langsameren Tempo leading into the first trio, in C major with an upward chromatic theme, and a second trio in A-flat major which is more markedly rhythmic and diatonic in character.
Kräftig, mit Humor in G major, in common (4/4) time and 104 quarter notes to the minute. There is a prominent episode in this rondo which quotes the C major trio from the scherzo (now in D major).
MAHLERS FIRST FOUR SYMPHONIES ARE DISTINGUISHED FORM HIS OTHERS- THE FOUR ARE COLLECTIVELY KNOWN AS THE WUNDERHORN SYMPHONIES- MAHLER DESCRIBED THEM AS A "TETRALOGY"- HE CALLED HIS FIRST FOUR SYMPHONIES THE TETRALOGY----- TETRA IS FOUR
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symphony_No._4_(Mahler)
Mahler's first four symphonies are often referred to as the "Wunderhorn" symphonies because many of their themes originate in earlier songs by Mahler on texts from Des Knaben Wunderhorn ("The Boy's Magic Horn""). The fourth symphony is built around a single song, "Das himmlische Leben". It is prefigured in various ways in the first three movements and sung in its entirety by a solo soprano in the fourth movement.
Mahler composed "Das himmlische Leben" as a freestanding piece in 1892. The title is Mahler's own: in the Wunderhorn collection the poem is called "Der Himmel hängt voll Geigen" (an idiomatic expression akin to "there's not a cloud in the sky"). Several years later Mahler considered using the song as the seventh and final movement of his Symphony No. 3. While motifs from "Das himmlische Leben" are found in the Symphony No. 3, Mahler eventually decided not to include it in that work and, instead, made the song the goal and source of his Symphony No. 4. This symphony thus presents a thematic fulfilment of the musical world of No. 3, which is part of the larger tetralogy of the first four symphonies, as Mahler described them to Natalie Bauer-Lechner. Early plans in which the Symphony was projected as a six-movement work included another Wunderhorn song, "Das irdische Leben" ("Earthly Life") as a somber pendant to "Das himmlische Leben", offering a tableau of childhood starvation in juxtaposition to heavenly abundance, but Mahler later decided on a simpler structure for the score.[2]
THE SYMPHONY HAS FOUR MOVEMENTS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symphony_No._4_(Mahler)
A typical performance of the symphony lasts about an hour, making it one of Mahler's shorter symphonies. The performing forces are also small by Mahler's usual standard. These features have made it the most frequently-performed Mahler symphony, though in recent years the First has gained ground.
The movements of the symphony:
Bedächtig, nicht eilen (Moderately, not rushed) – sonata form
In gemächlicher Bewegung, ohne Hast (Leisurely moving, without haste) – scherzo and trio
Ruhevoll, poco adagio (Peacefully, somewhat slowly) – theme and variations
Sehr behaglich (Very comfortably) – strophic
THE SONG CYCLE CONSISTS OF FOUR LIEDER
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lieder_eines_fahrenden_Gesellen
Lieder eines fahrenden Gesellen ('Songs of a Wayfarer') is a song cycle by Gustav Mahler on his own texts. The cycle of four Lieder for medium voice (often performed by women as well as men) was written around 1884–85 in the wake of Mahler's unhappy love for soprano Johanna Richter, whom he met while conductor of the opera house in Kassel, Germany,[1] and orchestrated and revised in the 1890s.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symphony_No._6_(Mahler)
Symphony No. 6 in A minor by Gustav Mahler is a symphony in four movements, composed in 1903 and 1904 (revised 1906; scoring repeatedly revised). Mahler conducted the work's first performance at the Saalbau (de) concert hall in Essen on May 27, 1906. It is sometimes referred to by the nickname Tragische ("Tragic"). Mahler composed the symphony at what was apparently an exceptionally happy time in his life, as he had married Alma Schindler in 1902, and during the course of the work's composition his second daughter was born. This contrasts with the tragic, even nihilistic, ending of No. 6. Both Alban Berg and Anton Webern praised the work when they first heard it. Berg expressed his opinion of the stature of this symphony in a 1908 letter to Webern:
The work, in four movements, lasts around 80 minutes. The order of the inner movements is a matter of debate. The first published edition of the score (CF Kahnt, 1906) featured the movements in the following order:[3]
Allegro energico, ma non troppo. Heftig, aber markig.
Scherzo: Wuchtig
Andante moderato
Finale: Sostenuto – Allegro moderato – Allegro energico

The Piano Quartet in A minor (also referred to as the Piano Quartet Movement in A minor) is an early work of Gustav Mahler, the intended first movement of a piano quartet that was apparently never completed.[1] It is the only surviving piece of chamber music without voice composed by Mahler.[2]

If you look closely, you’ll actually see three X’s; the 6-6-6. The reason for this is Hebrew gematria or numerology. The ‘X’ is the 24th letter of the alphabet and 2+4=6; the Kabbalistic reduction of the number. I got further into this topic in Kabbalah conspiracy theories and Illuminati symbolism in pop culture:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canonic_Variations_on_%22Vom_Himmel_hoch_da_komm%27_ich_her%22
The exuberant Canon with Inversions, which appears last in the engraved version, builds up to a cumulative climax, but originally did not contain the passing reference to the BACH motif in its closing bars. In the autograph manuscript, it becomes the central variation, comparable to the role played by the central large-scale sixteenth Goldberg variation. The calmer Augmentation Canon, on the other hand, similar to the thirteenth Goldberg variation, has a clear reference to the BACH motif in its 39th bar, its anguished harmonies resolved peacefully by the final pedal point. Because of continual reworkings, it is now believed that Bach never intended there to be a final fixed version. Commentators have pointed out that although the order of the variations in the autograph version gives it a certain aesthetic symmetry, the order in the engraved version might be more appropriate for performance.[8]

FOUR MOVEMENTS MAIN THEME FOUR NOTES
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symphony_No._41_(Mozart)
The third movement, a Menuetto marked allegretto is similar to a Ländler, a popular Austrian folk dance form. Midway through the movement there is a chromatic progression in which sparse imitative textures are presented by the woodwinds (bars 43–51) before the full orchestra returns. In the trio section of the movement, the four-note figure that will form the main theme of the last movement appears prominently (bars 68–71), but on the seventh degree of the scale rather than the first, and in a minor key rather than a major, giving it a very different character.
Finally, a remarkable characteristic of this symphony is the five-voice fugato (representing the five major themes) at the end of the fourth movement. But there are fugal sections throughout the movement either by developing one specific theme or by combining two or more themes together, as seen in the interplay between the woodwinds. The main theme consists of four notes:
The four-note theme is a common plainchant motif which can be traced back at least as far as Josquin des Prez's Missa Pange lingua from the sixteenth century. It was very popular with Mozart. It makes a brief appearance as early as his Symphony No. 1 in 1764. Later, he used it in the Credo of an early Missa Brevis in F major, the first movement of his Symphony No. 33 and trio of the minuet of this symphony.[6]
Scholars are certain Mozart studied Michael Haydn's Symphony No. 28 in C major, which also has a fugato in its finale and whose coda he very closely paraphrases for his own coda. Charles Sherman speculates that Mozart also studied Michael Haydn's Symphony No. 23 in D major because he "often requested his father Leopold to send him the latest fugue that Haydn had written."[7] The Michael Haydn No. 39, written only a few weeks before Mozart's, also has a fugato in the finale, the theme of which begins with two whole notes. Sherman has pointed out other similarities between the two almost perfectly contemporaneous works. The four-note motif is also the main theme of the contrapuntal finale of Michael's elder brother Joseph's Symphony No. 13 in D major (1764).
EXTREMELY FAMOUS- FOUR ACTS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Marriage_of_Figaro
The Marriage of Figaro (Italian: Le nozze di Figaro, pronounced [le ˈnɔttse di ˈfiːɡaro]), K. 492, is an opera buffa (comic opera) in four acts composed in 1786 by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, with an Italian libretto written by Lorenzo Da Ponte. It premiered at the Burgtheater in Vienna on 1 May 1786. The opera's libretto is based on a stage comedy by Pierre Beaumarchais, La folle journée, ou le Mariage de Figaro ("The Mad Day, or The Marriage of Figaro"), which was first performed in 1784. It tells how the servants Figaro and Susanna succeed in getting married, foiling the efforts of their philandering employer Count Almaviva to seduce Susanna and teaching him a lesson in fidelity.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart began his series of preserved piano concertos with four that he wrote at the age of 11, in Salzburg: K. 37 and 39–41. The autographs, all held by the Jagiellonian Library, Kraków, are dated by his father as having been completed in April (K. 37) and July (K. 39–41) of 1767. Although these works were long considered to be original, they are now known to be orchestrations of sonatas by various German virtuosi. The works on which the concertos are based were largely published in Paris, and presumably Mozart and his family became acquainted with them or their composers during their visit to Paris in 1763–64.
By using movements from the sonatas of other composers, the young Mozart seems to have begun to learn how to cope with the structural problems of composing in the piano concerto form.[1] Indeed, it may be that Leopold Mozart had devised this as a compositional teaching method. If so, it seems that this may have been the first time this had been done by the composer. This is perhaps supported by two facts: First, Leopold excluded the first four concertos from his 1768 list, suggesting that he may not have considered them true compositions by his son. Second, the autographs of the four works are the joint products of both Mozart and Leopold (although K. 41 is mainly in Leopold's hand alone).[1]

Opus 135: String Quartet No. 16 in F major (1826)
THERE ARE 16 SQUARES QMR--- BEETHOVEN HAD 16 QUARTETS- HIS 16TH QUARTET HAD FOUR MOVEMENTS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_Quartet_No._16_(Beethoven)
String Quartet No. 16 (Beethoven)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The String Quartet No. 16 in F major, op. 135, by Ludwig van Beethoven was written in October 1826[1] and was the last major work he completed. Only the final movement of the Quartet op. 130, written as a replacement for the Große Fuge, was composed later. The op. 135 quartet was premiered by the Schuppanzigh Quartet in March 1828, one year after Beethoven's death.
The work is more lighthearted and is on a smaller scale than the other late quartets. Under the introductory slow chords in the last movement Beethoven wrote in the manuscript "Muß es sein?" (Must it be?) to which he responds, with the faster main theme of the movement, "Es muß sein!" (It must be!). The whole movement is headed "Der schwer gefaßte Entschluß" ("The Difficult Decision").
It is in four movements:
Allegretto in F major
Vivace in F major
Lento assai, cantante e tranquillo in D-flat major
“Der schwer gefaßte Entschluß (The difficult decision).” Grave, ma non troppo tratto (Muss es sein?/Must it be?) – Allegro (Es muss sein!/It must be!) – Grave, ma non troppo tratto – Allegro in F major
SOME SAY THAT BEETHOVEN'S 15TH OF THE 16 QUARTETS INSPIRED TS ELLIOT TO WRITE FOUR QUARTETS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_Quartet_No._15_(Beethoven)
Some credit this quartet as T. S. Eliot's impetus to write the Four Quartets; certainly he was recorded in a letter to Stephen Spender as having a copy of the A minor quartet on the gramophone: 'I find it quite inexhaustible to study. There is a sort of heavenly or at least more than human gaiety about some of his later things which one imagines might come to oneself as the fruit of reconciliation and relief after immense suffering; I should like to get something of that into verse before I die.'[5]
STANDARD FOUR MOVEMENTS 16 BAR CODA- quadrant number bars
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_Quartet_No._12_(Villa-Lobos)
As in all of Villa-Lobos's string quartets except the first, there are the traditional four movements:
Allegro
Andante malinconico
Allegretto leggiero
Allegro ben ritmato
Departing from the traditional sonata-allegro form, Villa-Lobos casts the opening movement of this quartet in a simple ABA ternary form. Each section is thirty-two bars in length, subdivided into sixteen- , eight- , and four-bars segments, and this main body of the movement is followed by a sixteen-bar coda. An interesting detail of the manuscript score is that Villa-Lobos uses the Portuguese tempo marking Alegro, instead of the Italian spelling which is his normal habit (Gutiérrez 2006, 4). The middle, B section is marked meno, and is in the rhythm of a modinha (Estrella 1978, 100). The composer's biographer, Eero Tarasti, regards this as a regression to Villa-Lobos's earlier, clumsier style of quartet writing, and finds the texture "considerably more complicated than in previous quartets and the sound lacks transparency" (Tarasti 1995, 316). Juan José Gutiérrez, on the contrary, views the quartet as relatively simple and concise, marking the beginnings of a neoclassical concern with balance and symmetry of structure in the composer's late period (Gutiérrez 2006, 3–4).
MOZARTS FIRST SYMPHONY MAKES USE OF THE FOUR NOTES THAT HE USES IN ONE OF HIS MOST FAMOUS SYMPHONIES THE JUPITER SYMPHONY- RECALL JUPITER WAS SEEN AS THE HIGHEST GOD AND EVEN THE ONLY GOD AND JUPITER WAS REPRESENTED BY THE NUMBER FOUR
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symphony_No._1_(Mozart)
The Symphony No. 1 in E♭ major, K. 16, was written in 1764 by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart at the age of eight years.[1] By this time, he was already notable in Europe as a wunderkind performer, but had composed little music.
In the second movement, the eight-year-old Mozart makes use of the four note motif that appears in the finale of his Jupiter symphony, No. 41. The four notes, Do, Re, Fa, Mi, make an appearance in several of Mozart's works, including his Symphony No. 33.[3] This theme is stated by the horns in his first symphony.
BEETHOVENS FOURTH NOTE WAS CALLED THE SUPRISE NOTE- THE FOURTH IS ALWAYS DIFFERENT
http://fundamentals-of-piano-practice.readthedocs.io/en/latest/chapter1/ch1_research/IV.4.html
Let’s see how Beethoven used his intuitive understanding of spatial symmetry to compose his 5th Symphony. That famous first movement is constructed using a short musical theme consisting of four notes; the first three are repetitions of the same note. Since the fourth note is different, it is called the surprise note and Beethoven’s genius was to assign the beat to this note.
http://fundamentals-of-piano-practice.readthedocs.io/en/latest/chapter1/ch1_research/IV.4.html
Beethoven was particularly fond of this four-note theme, and used it in many of his compositions, such as the first movement of the Appassionata piano sonata, see bar 10, LH.
MOZART USED THE SAME FOUR NOTE MOTIF AS HAYDN (THE FATHER OF THE STRING QUARTET)
But that’s not, in itself, an original idea – and neither is the four-note melodic tag (C-D-F-E) that is catalyst for this explosion of contrapuntal mastery. Mozart borrowed his supposed symphonic innovation from the Haydn brothers, Joseph (the famous one) and Michael (less famous, but equally influential on Mozart). We know that Mozart wanted to hear the latest fugues from Michael’s symphonies, which were written in Salzburg, and he asked his father to send them to him. That means he would have known the finale of Michael’s 28th Symphony, with its obsessive fugato, also in C major; probably the fugue that crowns his 34th, in E flat major; and quite possibly another fugue-finale from his 39th symphony, also in C major, composed just a few months before Mozart’s. The similarities between Michael’s 29th and 39th, and Mozart’s 41st are sometimes startling, as you can hear. Even more shocking, have a listen to this, the final movement of Joseph’s 13th Symphony, written in 1764. There’s the very same four-note idea used as the basis of a contrapuntal work-out of a symphonic finale. There ain’t nothing so old – or so new – as a fugato-style finale.
THE FOUR NOTE MOTIF USED BY MOZART AND THOMAS OF AQUINAS, PANGE LUNGUA JOSQUIN DES PREZ- JOHANNES FUX
And that four-note motif has a history, and not just in Mozart’s own music (you can hear it most clearly in the Credo of his Missa Brevis K192, and in his 1st and 33rd Symphonies) and that of his contemporaries. In fact, it goes back to a 13th-century hymn attributed to Thomas of Aquinas, Pange Lingua, which Josquin des Prez used as the basis for probably his last Mass setting in 1515. Since then, the four-note melody at the start of the third line of the original hymn (which Josquin employs as a contrapuntal catalyst in his Kyrie) has turned up throughout musical history, especially as a fugal inspiration. That includes its use by Johannes Fux, the 17th and 18th century composer and theorist, in his famous textbook of musical polyphony Gradus ad Parnassum (which Mozart knew, and used in his own teaching of his English pupil, Thomas Attwood).
THE BACH MOTIF IS FOUR NOTES USED BY BACH AND IT MAKES A CROSS/QUADRANT- MANY COMPOSERS HAVE USED IT SINCE BACH
http://encyclopedia.kids.net.au/page/ba/BACH_motif
BACH motif
In music, the BACH motif is the sequence of notes B flat, A, C, B natural.
The possibilty of being able to spell the surname Bach in this way comes about because in German B indicates what in English is called B flat, while H indicates what in English is called B natural.
This four-note motif has been used by a number of composers, most usually as a homage to Johann Sebastian Bach. The first known example, however, is in a piece by Jan Pieterzoon Sweelinck[?]. It is possible, though not certain, that he used it in homage to one of Johann Sebastian's ancestors, many of whom were themselves musicians.
J. S. Bach himself used it as a fugue subject in the final part of Die Kunst der Fuge[?] (around 1750), a work he did not complete before he died. The motif also appears briefly in an earlier work, the Kleines harmonisches Labyrinth, BWV591, in the penultimate bar, although this is not thought to be very significant and the work may even be spurious (Johann David Heinichen[?] has been suggested as a possible composer).
A fugue for keyboard in F major by one of Bach's sons, probably either Johann Christian Bach or Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach, exists using the motif, but it was not until the 19th century when interest in Bach was revived that the motif began to be used with any regularity.
Perhaps because it was used by Bach himself in a fugue, the motif is often used by other composers in fugues or other complex contrapuntal writing.
Works which prominently feature the BACH motif include:
Robert Schumann - Six Fugues for organ, pedal piano or harmonium[?], opus 60 (1845)
Franz Liszt - Fantasie und Fuge �ber das Thema B-A-C-H, for organ (1855, later arranged for piano)
Max Reger[?] - Fantasia and Fugue on B-A-C-H for organ (1900)
Ferruccio Busoni - Fantasia contrappuntistica for piano (first version 1910, later versions 1912 and 1922)
Arthur Honegger - Pr�lude, Arioso, Fughette for piano (1932, later arranged for string orchestra)
Francis Poulenc - Valse-improvisation sur le nom Bach for piano (1932)
Anton Webern - String Quartet (1937-38) - the tone row is based on the BACH motif
Jean Coulthard[?] - Variations on BACH for piano (1952)
Arvo P�rt - Collage over B-A-C-H for strings, oboe, harpsichord and piano (1964)
The motif features in passing in a number of other works including Arnold Schoenberg's Variations for Orchestra (1926-28) and his String Quartet No. 3 (1927), and Krzysztof Penderecki's St Luke Passion.
SHOSTAKOVICH ALSO HAD HIS OWN FOUR NOTE MOTIF LIKE BACH DID (A LOT OF THEM HAD FOUR NOTE MOTIFS- I POSTED ALL THIS STUFF A LONG TIME AGO AND TONS OF OTHER STUFF)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DSCH_motif
DSCH is a musical motif used by the composer Dmitri Shostakovich to represent himself. It is a musical cryptogram in the manner of the BACH motif, consisting of the notes D, E flat, C, B natural, or in German musical notation D, Es, C, H (pronounced as "De-Es-Ce-Ha"), thus standing for the composer's initials in German transliteration: D. Sch. (Dmitri Schostakowitsch), also pronounced as "De-Es-Ce-Ha."
THE HIGHEST GOES TO IS QUADRUPLE CHANTS- BUT TRANSCENDENT/RARE
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anglican_chant
Double, triple and quadruple chants[edit]
The example above is a single chant. This is mostly only used for very short psalms (half a dozen verses or so).
The most commonly used chants are double chants. These are twice the length of a single chant. The music of the chant is repeated for every pair of verses. This reflects the structure of the Hebrew poetry of many of the psalms: Each verse is in two halves - the second half answers the first; the verses are in pairs - the second verse answers the first.
Triple and quadruple chants are considerably rarer. They appeared from the latter part of the 19th century to cover some of the exceptions to this format. They set the verses of the psalm in groups of three or four verses respectively. Psalm 2 (for example) is suited to a triple chant; a quadruple chant might be used for Psalm 78.
A double chant is divided into "quarters", each of which has the music for half a verse. Triple and quadruple chants may also be described as containing six or eight quarters.
If the entire text (or a section of it) has an odd number of verses, the second half of the chant is usually repeated at an appropriate point, which may be marked "2nd part". Similarly, "3rd part" markings may be used for triple chants.
FOUR PERIODS IN VERDIS WORK
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giuseppe_Verdi
The earliest study of Verdi's music, published in 1859 by the Italian critic Abraham Basevi, already distinguished four periods in Verdi's music. The early, 'grandiose' period, ended according to Basevi with La battaglia di Legnano (1849), and a 'personal' style began with the next opera Luisa Miller. These two operas are generally agreed today by critics to mark the division between Verdi's 'early' and 'middle' periods. The 'middle' period is felt to end with La traviata (1853) and Les vêpres siciliennes (1855), with a 'late' period commencing with Simon Boccanegra (1857) running through to Aida (1871). The last two operas, Otello and Falstaff, together with the Requiem and the Four Sacred Pieces, then represent a 'final' period.[148]

FOUR NOTE MOTIF
http://www.nytimes.com/2012/02/07/arts/music/carmina-burana-choral-project-at-carnegie-hall.html
Gabriel Smallwood of Florence, S.C. — the youngest, at 14 — choose an English version of the Dies Irae (Day of Wrath) hymn for his text. He wanted to convey “how sudden the Last Judgment could happen,” he wrote in a program note. At the start the orchestra rumbles with subdued tension as the chorus intones the words. A descending four-note bass pattern keeps recurring like a “Dies irae” motif.
the four finales the four elements tetrachord
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hagiopolitan_Octoechos
Hucbald used an idiosyncratic Greek letter system which referred to the double octave system (systēma teleion) and called the four elements known as "finales" according to the Greek system:[22]

FOUR PIECES
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Etudes_Boreales
The set comprises four pieces. The cello parts are technically similar to Freeman Etudes: they are extremely demanding pieces composed using chance operations, every aspect of the work meticulously detailed in the score. The difference between the works is that in Etudes Boreales the pitch range is limited at any given time, and changes throughout the pieces, whereas in Freeman Etudes the range was unlimited. An excerpt from one of the etudes shows that the technique required involves the ability to jump accurately to any point on the fingerboard or beyond, which is particularly difficult in these pieces as they are to be played without vibrato (Stowell, 221):

TETRACHORDS- TETRA IS FOUR- I POSTED A TON OF STUFF ON TETRACHORD IT WAS THE BASIS OF GREEK MUSIC ALL THAT

The scale patterns are organized against a background pattern formed of conjunct and disjunct tetrachords, producing a larger pitch system called the gamut
THE FOUR MARIAN ANTIPHONS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gregorian_chant
At the close of the Office, one of four Marian antiphons is sung. These songs, Alma Redemptoris Mater (see top of article), Ave Regina caelorum, Regina caeli laetare, and Salve, Regina, are relatively late chants, dating to the 11th century, and considerably more complex than most Office antiphons. Apel has described these four songs as "among the most beautiful creations of the late Middle Ages."[66]
USED THE TETRACHORD- TETRA IS FOUR
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gregorian_chant
In contrast to the ancient Greek system of tetrachords (a collection of four continuous notes) that descend by two tones and a semitone, the Enchiriadis writings base their tone-system on a tetrachord that corresponds to the four finals of chant, D, E, F, and G. The disjunct tetrachords in the Enchiriadis system have been the subject of much speculation, because they do not correspond to the diatonic framework that became the standard Medieval scale (for example, there is a high F#, a note not recognized by later Medieval writers). A diatonic scale with a chromatically alterable b/b-flat was first described by Hucbald, who adopted the tetrachord of the finals (D, E, F, G) and constructed the rest of the system following the model of the Greek Greater and Lesser Perfect Systems. These were the first steps in forging a theoretical tradition that corresponded to chant.
FOUR LINE STAFF (three spaces)- (now five line staff four spaces)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neume
Neumes are written on a four-line staff on the lines and spaces, unlike modern music notation, which uses five lines. Chant does not rely on any absolute pitch or key; the clefs are only to establish the half and whole steps of the solfege or hexachord scale: "ut", "re", "mi", "fa", "sol", "la", "ti", "ut". The clef bracketing a line indicates the location "ut" in the case of the C clef, or "fa" in the case of the F clef as shown:
SOUL MADE OF FOUR ELEMENTS ACCORDING TO ARISTOXENUS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aristoxenus
The theory that the soul is a "harmony" of the four elements composing the body, and therefore mortal ("nothing at all," in the words of Cicero[8]), was ascribed to Aristoxenus (fr. 118-121 Wehrli) and Dicaearchus. This theory is comparable to the one offered by Simmias in Plato's Phaedo.

I POSTED ALL THIS STUFF BEFORE- but now I'm posting links you can read it all in my over 60 QMR BOOKS- FOUR HYMNS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hymns_to_Mary
The Marian Anthems are sung primarily by Roman Catholics particularly in religious communities after Compline. There are also used in Anglican communities where the traditional Divine Office is observed. Traditionally, they were also said after Lauds, and after each Hour when sung in choir, if the choir was then to disperse. These four antiphons were originally only performed in connection with psalms, but have been used as detached chants since 1239.[24]
Although there are a number of Marian antiphons, some of great antiquity, the term is most often used to refer to the four hymns which have been used as detached chants since 1239:[24]
Alma Redemptoris Mater (Advent through February 2)
Ave Regina Caelorum (Presentation of the Lord through Good Friday)
Regina Coeli (Easter season)
Salve Regina (from first Vespers of Trinity Sunday until None of the Saturday before Advent)
There have been exceptions to this schedule in different monastic traditions over the years, e.g. the Benedictine monasteries were using them in the 14th century.[25] In current usage the liturgical year is divided into four periods, with each period associated with one of the four Marian antiphons, which is sung at the end of Compline or Vespers during that period. For example, Alma Redemptoris Mater is sung from the first Sunday in Advent until February 2.
The four Marian antiphons (with occasional variations in the text) are often set to polyphonic music for choir or as solo arias. The Gregorian melodies exist both in elaborate solemn forms and simplified versions.[26]
FOUR SECTIONS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coronation_anthem
This piece sets a text developed by Henry Purcell for the 1685 coronation, consisting of a shortened adaptation of verses from Psalm 45 (verses 1, 10, 12) and Book of Isaiah (chapter 49, verse 23). In 1727 it was sung at the end of the coronation of queen Caroline, with adaptations by Handel to make its words more appropriate for a queen. The music is in four sections and characterised by a more refined and distinguished air than the other anthems.
FOUR AMBROSE HYMNS SURVIVE
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ambrosian_chant
Ambrose composed original hymns as well, four of which still survive, along with music which may not have changed too much from the original melodies.
AS I ALREADY ILLUSTRATED THERE ARE EIGHT MODES BUT THEY ARE DIVIDED INTO FOUR PAIRS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gregorian_mode
Tonality[edit]
In the traditional system of eight modes (in use from the 8th century up to 1547) there are four pairs, each pair comprising an authentic mode and a plagal mode.
HANDEL "USED ASCENING FOURTH AS UNIFYING MOTIF"
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Messiah_(Handel)
For example, the musicologist Rudolf Steglich has suggested that Handel used the device of the "ascending fourth" as a unifying motif; this device most noticeably occurs in the first two notes of "I know that my Redeemer liveth" and on numerous other occasions. Nevertheless, Luckett finds this thesis implausible, and asserts that "the unity of Messiah is a consequence of nothing more arcane than the quality of Handel's attention to his text, and the consistency of his musical imagination".[114] Allan Kozinn, The New York Times music critic, finds "a model marriage of music and text ... From the gentle falling melody assigned to the opening words ("Comfort ye") to the sheer ebullience of the "Hallelujah" chorus and the ornate celebratory counterpoint that supports the closing "Amen", hardly a line of text goes by that Handel does not amplify".[115]

HALLELUJAH MEANS PRAISE THE TETRAGRAMMATON- IT IS REPEATED MANY TIMES
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4_Hot_Wave
"4 Hot Wave" (stylized as 4 hot wave) is Japanese singer Koda Kumi's 32nd single on the Rhythm Zone label. It charted at #2 on Oricon and stayed on the charts for seventeen weeks.[1] The sales for the single became her highest selling single, even surpassing the total sales of real Emotion/1000 no Kotoba in less than three weeks.[2] It became her highest debut single and reclaimed the title of Highest Debut Sales Female Artists, previously held by Ayumi Hamasaki's Blue Bird.[3]
FOUR CATEGORIES
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Art_of_Noises
Russolo explains how "musical sound is too limited in its variety of timbres."[3] He breaks the timbres of an orchestra down into four basic categories: bowed instruments, metal winds, wood winds, and percussion. He says that we must "break out of this limited circle of sound and conquer the infinite variety of noise-sounds,"[3] and that technology would allow us to manipulate noises in ways that could not have been done with earlier instruments.
FOUR STANZAS

Kojo No Tsuki (Rentaro Taki) - Wikipedia
This is the work of Rentaro Tuki (1879-1903) who is credited with being the first major composer of the Meiji Era. Taki studied at the Leipzig Music Conservatory in Germany but returned to Japan to die at the age of 24. The lyrics for Kojo No Tsuki, in four stanzas, were written by Bansui Tsuchii.
FOUR THEMES
http://ajisabaki.com/…/Japanese_Melodies_for_Flute_and_Harp/
Hana (Rentaro Taki)
This was composed in the 33rd year of the Meiji Era and was originally a three-part-harmony song. Its verses, by Hagoromo Takeshina, presented four themes: Flower, Cool Breeze, Moon, and Snow. Hana (flower) has become a familiar melody, particularly favored by young Japanese girls.
STAR SPANGLED BANNER HAS FOUR STANZAS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Star-Spangled_Banner
The poem was set to the tune of a popular British song written by John Stafford Smith for the Anacreontic Society, a men's social club in London. "To Anacreon in Heaven" (or "The Anacreontic Song"), with various lyrics, was already popular in the United States. Set to Key's poem and renamed "The Star-Spangled Banner", it soon became a well-known American patriotic song. With a range of one octave and one fifth (a semitone more than an octave and a half), it is known for being difficult to sing. Although the poem has four stanzas, only the first is commonly sung today.
FOUR STANZAS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joan_of_Arc_(Leonard_Cohen_song)
"Joan of Arc" is a song by Canadian singer-songwriter Leonard Cohen. It was released as a single in March 1971 from his third album, Songs of Love and Hate. The song lasts almost six-and-a-half minutes, and is composed of four stanzas of eight lines each with a "la-la" refrain.
ALTERNATING SEQUENCE OF FOUR LINE STANZAS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_song
Musical characteristics of a mass song ensured easy comprehension and performance by non-professional "masses". A mass song is typically an alternating sequence of four-line stanzas and refrains in a nonsophisticated musical form which employed most common vocal register. Typically these songs are of optimistic or heroic character, written in the form of a march.[1]
FOUR LINE LYRIC STANZAS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stev
Stev is a form of Norwegian folk song consisting of four line lyric stanzas.[1] The English version of the word is stave, meaning the stressed syllable in a metric verse.
Gamlestev[edit]
gamlestev (old stave) is the oldest type. It is likely that gamlestev were originally danced.[2] Stanzas in gamlestev meter,were already established around the end of the 13th century.[3]
Of the gamlestev that have been preserved, most of them are from Setesdal and øvre Telemark . This poetic form is equivalent to the metre of the medieval ballad, and is used over most of Northern Europe:
Oh who will shoe my bonny foot
and who will glove my hand
and who will lace my middle waist
with a long, long linen band.
The metre in most old staves is free, and the rhyming is always on the second and fourth line.
Some gamlestev might be remnants of folk songs that have been split up, and thereby losing completeness.
Nystev[edit]
Nystev (new stave[citation needed]) have probably been around since about year 1700.[3] "It is the Norwegian counterpart to blues from America", wrote Geirr Lystrup (in 1980).[4]
In Telemark, nystev have been replaced by rural folksongs, to a great extent. By contrast, nystev in Setesdal have held much of their ground. Many folksongs are based on the form, which rhymes in pairs:
Den dag kjem aldri at eg deg gløymer
for når eg søver, eg om deg drøymer.
og natt og dag er du like nær,
men best eg ser deg når myrkt det er.

BACKSTREET BOYS AND ELEMENTS
http://www.mtv.com/news/1499920/backstreet-boys-brave-the-elements-for-incomplete-video/
Kahn used natural elements, including fire, snow, wind and rain, to symbolize the group's contrasting personalities. He decided that A.J. McLean embodies the band's rock and roll sensibilities, with his "fiery light and Hollywood cool," so he framed McLean by the sun as he drives a classic car down the highway.
Nick Carter is "very volatile at times, beautiful to look at, but dangerous if you get too close," so he is represented by fire. In the video, Carter torches McLean's '68 GTO (the original idea was to torch a barn, but the local fire marshal wouldn't give approval).
Howie Dorough, the "slick guy in the group," according to Kahn, became rain. He sits under an old Joshua tree as a gust of wind picks up and the downpour starts.
Kevin Richardson, "the most mature and reserved" Backstreet Boy, is "colder," so he became snow. He's seated at a white piano in the midst of a smoldering forest as a flurry starts and smoke rises from the ground.
And Brian Littrell, who Kahn describes as "this big ball of energy, you can't stop him," became the crashing waves of the ocean. He stands with his legs in the water as thunderclouds assemble above him.

"W.C. Handy, 'the Father of the Blues', codified this blues form to help musicians communicate chord changes."[4][clarification needed] Many variations are possible. The length of sections may be varied to create eight-bar blues or sixteen-bar blues.

talks about the 16 echoi- 16 squares quadrant model says four by fourand ultimately 24 adding two more fours- talks about tetrachords and the four colors and four humours
relates four ways of music to the four elements
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hagiopolitan_Octoechos
The author of the Hagiopolites mentioned an alternative system of 16 echoi "sung in the Asma," with 4 phthorai and 4 mesoi beyond the kyrioi and plagioi of the diatonic Octoechos:
The 4 Echoi which come first are generated from themselves, not from others. As to the four which come next, i.e. the Plagal ones, Plagios Prōtos is derived from Prōtos, and Plagios Deuteros from Deuteros – normally Deuteros melodies end in Plagios Deuteros. Similarly, Barys from Tritos – "for in the Asma Hypobole of Barys is sung as Tritos together with its ending". From the 4 Plagioi originate the 4 Mesoi, and from these the 4 Phthorai. This makes up the 16 Echoi which are sung in the Asma – as already mentioned, there are sung only 10 in the Hagiopolites.[16]
As there are 4 basic elements/targets [earth, water, air, and fire] which created their music, the πρῶτος, the δεύτερος, the τρίτος, and the τέταρτος, and by their formulas the same generate 24 different elements: the [4] κέντροι (central), [4] ἶσοι (basic), and [4] πλάγιοι (plagal), the [4] καθαροί (kathartic), [4] ἄηχοι (aphonic), and [4] παράηχοι (paraphonic). Hence, it is impossible to create something outside those infinite melodies of hymns, treatments, revelations, and of other parts of the Holy Wisdom, which is free from the irregularities and corruptions of other musical emotions (πάθη).
In the edition of the treatise by Otto Gombosi, the four "elements" (α', β', γ', δ') were associated with certain colours—πρῶτος with black (all colours together), δεύτερος with white (no colour at all), τρίτος with yellow (an elementary coulour), and τέταρτος with purple (a combination of elementary colours). These passages could be easily compiled with Zosimos of Panopolis' treatise about the process of bleaching.
The system favoured 3 four tetrachord sets (either modes by themselves or simply degree of the modes with different functions), called κέντροι, ἷσοι, and πλάγιοι. Kέντρος would be probably an early name for μέσος, if it lied between the ἶσος and πλάγιος, it could be as well used as an early name for κύριος ἦχος, because it is mentioned here first, while ἶσος could mean "equivalent", or just basis notes.
In comparison, the Hagiopolitan terminology already included the "corruption" (φθορά) as an acceptable modal category in itself, which was neither excluded in the Hagiopolitan Octoechos nor in the modal system of a certain cathedral rite, which was made of 16 echoi. On the other hand, the described system, whether it meant 24 echoi including 12 pathologic echoi, called "aechoi" and "paraechoi", and associated with 4 "katharoi" or just cadential degrees or other modal functions. It is not clear, whether the latter name was simply meant in a geographical or ethnical way or whether it was here connected with a kind of music therapy which included certain pathe as a kind of antidote. Medical treatises of the Mediterranean had been developed later on by the association of melodic modes with 4 elements and 4 humours.[19]

PLANNING TO SHOOT FOUR FOUR NAMESDEC. 6, 1999: FT. GIBSON, OLKA. A seventh grader at Fort Gibson Middle School opened fire in school with a 9mm handgun. At least four students were injured. John David Luton, the district attorney at the time, confirmed to ABC News that “several” experts testified at trial on the boy’s behalf that he had been influenced by the Columbine massacre. As an example, one expert testified during a March 2000 hearing that the boy “started wondering what he would do if he were placed in the role of the [Columbine] perpetrators that were previously depicted on the TV and media,” Luton confirmed. The boy was convicted on six counts of shooting with intent to kill and one count of carrying a gun onto school property, and spent more than five years behind bars, according to reports at the time.
http://abcnews.go.com/US/columbine-shootings-grim-legacy-50-school-attacks-plots/story?id=26007119
MAY 18, 2009: LAFOURCHE PARISH, LA. A 15-year-old student “filled with hate” at Larose-Cut Off Middle School walked into a classroom with a 25-caliber semi-automatic handgun in his hand, pointed the gun at a teacher, and then fired one shot into the air. While the school was being placed on lockdown, he went into a boy’s bathroom and fatally shot himself in the head, police said. He was apparently planning to shoot four students at school and then take his own life. In his bedroom, police found a clipping from the local Daily Comet newspaper, which reran a USA Today article headlined: “10 years later, the real story behind Columbine.”
APRIL 10, 2007: GRESHAM, ORE. A 15-year-old was arrested after firing two shots into classrooms at Springwater Trail High School. Two students suffered minor injuries. In his backpack, police found a spiral notebook -- one page was titled “Hit-List” with four names on it. He later told police he got the idea to shoot at his school after watching a documentary about Columbine on TV days earlier, and he told them he didn’t really want to hurt anyone, he just wanted to scare them. He also said he was “psychotic” and suffering from mental health issues, according to recordings of the interviews obtained by ABC News. He pleaded guilty to assault and unlawful use of a weapon and was sentenced to nearly six years at a juvenile detention facility.
OCT. 28, 1999: CLEVELAND. Four boys were arrested for allegedly plotting a shooting rampage at South High School to coincide with homecoming. The Cuyahoga County Prosecutor’s Office confirmed to ABC News that for about two weeks, the group discussed – almost daily – their desire to do a Columbine attack, and they were seeking to recruit additional children to participate. In addition, the four boys had access to guns and had maps of the school, according to the prosecutor’s office. All four ended up pleading guilty in the case, and the two apparent ringleaders were sentenced to at least a year in state custody while the other two were sentenced to at least six months in custody, according to reports at the time.

ONE OF MOST FAMOUS NIRVANA SONGS- FOUR POWER CHORD RHIFF
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smells_Like_Teen_Spirit
"Smells Like Teen Spirit" follows a F–B♭–A♭–D♭ chord progression,[17] with the main guitar riff constructed from four power chords played in a syncopated sixteenth note strum by Cobain.[18] The guitar chords were double tracked because the band "wanted to make it sound more powerful," according to Vig.[19] The chords occasionally lapse into suspended chord voicings as a result of Cobain playing the bottom four strings of the guitar for the thickness of sound.[18] Listeners made many comments that the song bore a passing resemblance to Boston's 1976 hit "More Than a Feeling".[6] Cobain himself held similar opinions, saying that it "was such a clichéd riff. It was so close to a Boston riff or [The Kingsmen's] 'Louie Louie.'"[4] However, Rikky Rooksby points out that "Smells Like Teen Spirit" and "More Than a Feeling" follow different chord progressions.[17]
FOUR POWER CHORD RHIFF
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smells_Like_Teen_Spirit
Written by Kurt Cobain, Krist Novoselic, and Dave Grohl (lyrics by Cobain, music by Nirvana) and produced by Butch Vig, the song uses a verse-chorus form where the main four-chord riff is used during the intro and chorus to create an alternating loud and quiet dynamic.

CARMAN CRUCIFIXION
https://kusemaukweli.wordpress.com/2011/05/page/3/
Jesus “MADE IT BIG”? Jesus Christ died a curse for sinful man! See Gal. 3:13, 2 Cor 5:17! Jesus Christ was “despised and rejected of men” (Isa 53:3). Is “MAKING IT BIG” being beaten, smitten, spit upon, mocked and crucified?Carman’s Resurrection Rap video is some of the lowest BLASPHEMY I’ve ever seen! In the video, Carman portrays the Lord Jesus Christ as a confused street hippie, while the pharisees and apostles are black street gang members! The crucifixion takes place, not on Calvary — but in a back alley gang fight! The Lord Jesus Christ is buried in a GARBAGE DUMPSTER. And naturally Carman includes the occult (Carman’s videos are soaked in occult imagery!) as satanic tarot cards tell the Calvary story!

For our purposes, however, the "Closer" clip’s historical significance lies in the fact that it was the first to fulfill the censorship categories of "freaked-out monkey on a crucifix" and "naked bald girl spinning eggs on her fingers."

STARBOY THE ILLUMINATED CROSS- CROSS PENDANTA big illuminated cross hangs in his room.- CROSS REFLECTS IN HIS EYE
https://vigilantcitizen.com/musicbusiness/occult-meaning-weeknds-starboy/
Starboy features The Weeknd destroying his house using an illuminated cross. This strange scene has a powerful occult meaning, especially when one considers The Weeknd’s previous videos. We’ll take a closer look at the occult meaning of Starboy.
The Weeknd’s collaboration with Daft Punk is a somewhat perplexing one. While the lyrics celebrate the singer’s fame and material possessions, the video depicts him destroying his house using a red glowing cross. All the while, The Weeknd chants that he’s a “starboy”, a term that has more than one meaning.
So, not unlike in Tell Your Friends, The Weeknd kills his “previous self”. To symbolize his rebirth, the new The Weeknd has a new hairstyle. The camera also focuses on another important item: The Weeknd’s cross pendant. This piece of jewelry underlines the spiritual undertone of what is happening on screen. Is The Weeknd now a devout Christian? Well, not really. After all, he just committed murder while wearing that chain, so that is not a good start.
A big illuminated cross hangs in his room.
The cross literally catches his eye. The cross reflects inside a single eye, the occult elite’s favorite symbol.
On the left are lightning bolts, in the middle are crosses (and a star) and on the right are more lightning bolts. There are six symbols in each column resulting in … 666.
PUFF DADDY AND NAZ ON THE CROSS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hate_Me_Now
The music video for the single, directed by Hype Williams and featuring Nas being crucified, was the subject of extreme controversy, as the original edit also featured Puff Daddy on the cross.[1] A Catholic, Puffy had demanded that his crucifixion scene be excised from the broadcast edit of the video, but the wrong edit was incorrectly sent to MTV and TRL, and aired on April 15, 1999.[2] Within minutes of the broadcast, Puffy had barged into the offices of Nas' manager Steve Stoute with several bodyguards, and struck Stoute over the head with a champagne bottle. Stoute later sued Puffy, the suit was settled out of court.
There's a play in New York City where a black man played Jesus, and caught a lot of flak. I think, even the mayor at the time, Giuliani, was against it. So my thing was I wanted to be crucified like Jesus in the video, to get back at all those people that don't want to see a black man doing his thing. Me and Puff got hammered to the cross, but after Puff expressed his religious beliefs and speaking to his pastor, he wasn't ready to take that stance, so it was really my idea anyway, so we took his part out. For some reason, I think [my former manager] Steve Stoute let it fly with Puffy still being crucified to the cross, so there was that fight at the office, where Puff jumped on Steve or some shit like that. Both of them were friends of mine, so I kind of stepped in and squashed the whole thing, and it's all in the past. Just growing pains. We were all growing up. That brings back a lot of memories. Even when I throw it on onstage now, it still kills."[3]

Four80East is a Canadian electro jazz ensemble from Toronto with Rob DeBoer (keyboards, bass and guitar) and Tony Grace (percussion); accompanied by various session musicians. Although Four80East began as a studio concept, they have evolved into a live act. Their music is melodic with strong bass rhythms.
FOUR NOTE FOUR SYLLABLE MANTRA- FOUR PARTS
Perhaps most crucially, though, the power of this moment comes from our sense that a preordained design has just been revealed to us. Coltrane's solo had been tending toward the four-note, four-syllable mantra the entire course of his solo and we had not realized it. For this reason, the ending of "Acknowledgment" satisfies the listener in unusual ways. Unlike most jazz arrangements, which cycle after the solos back to a restatement of the head, "Acknowledgment" cycles to a revelation of the head: the central melody precipitates out of the solo.
We move through four parts: "Acknowledgment," an open-ended prelude built on a bass ostinato that later folds into the chanting of the words "a love supreme"; "Resolution," an up-tempo cooker that raises the intensity of the suite; "Pursuance," an even more frenetic piece, which begins with an extended Elvin Jones drum solo and seems bursting with improvisatory energy as it strays far from its (small amount of) precomposed thematic material; and "Psalm," a free-form but static saxophone chant where Coltrane "sings," with a note for every syllable, his praise poem "A Love Supreme."

NAS MAKES VARIOUS BIBLICAL REFERNCES TO DESCRIBE HIMSELF ON THE CROSS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/God%27s_Son_(album)
He ponders the concept of heaven on "Heaven", and makes various biblical references to describe himself on "The Cross".
Looking to make a playlist of songs that are about or reference the Crucifixion. Not looking for specifically religious songs, though I could see some gospel going well in this mix. References can be direct or very indirect. E.g., I'll take passing use of the word "Calvary", etc.
Let's get the obvious out of the way: Crucify by Tori Amos.
One that is slightly more oblique: Tomorrow Wendy by Concrete Blonde.
Okay—go.

Gavin Bryars recorded a street person singing the refrain "Jesus' blood never failed me yet" over and over again, and set it to music. (That version has Tom Waits singing in the background.)
Nick Cave's song Darker With The Day (no youtube, I'm afraid) contains a line about "a gilled Jesus shivering on a fisherman's hook" which I always took to be an oblique reference to crucifixion.

U2 and B.B. King, When Love Comes To Town - for the last verse ("I was there when they crucified my Lord/I held the scabbard when the soldier drew his sword/I threw the dice when they pierced His side/But I've seen love conquer the great divide").
The title cut off Peter Gabriel's "Passion" album. "Passion" is based on the soundtrack Peter did for The Last Tempation of Christ, and "Passion" is the cut that was based on the music for the Crucifixion in the film.
I say "based on" as Peter likes to tinker with soundtracks after he does them, so by the time he does the album they're sometimes a little different.

I think the chorus of Nick Cave's Oh My Lord references Jesus' words to God when he's on the Cross. I feel like there's more of his songs than just this and Mercy Seat though.
I knew that Titus Andronicus, with their love of the Hold Steady and melodrama, couldn't resist this metaphor and I finally found a Christ lyric in 'Arms Against Atrophy':
It ain't hard to see that it's not that way, not that way anymore. Jesus Christ is suffering upon his cross tonight. I just sit outside waiting for frost to bite. "It's always this way," she says on her way out the door. Wait and see. The rest is yet to reveal itself to me.

And the ship went down in sight of land
And at the gates does Thomas ask to see my hands

To alcohol and cigarettes

THE FOUR SHAPE SYSTEM
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sacred_Harp
In shape-note music, notes are printed in special shapes that help the reader identify them on the musical scale. There are two prevalent systems, one using four shapes, and one using seven. In the four-shape system used in The Sacred Harp, each of the four shapes is connected to a particular syllable, fa, sol, la, or mi, and these syllables are employed in singing the notes,[2] just as in the more familiar system that uses do, re, mi, etc. (see solfege). The four-shape system is able to cover the full musical scale because each syllable-shape combination other than mi is assigned to two distinct notes of the scale. For example, the C major scale would be notated and sung as follows:
FOUR PARTS FOUR BAR PHRASES
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sacred_Harp
Sacred Harp groups always sing a cappella, that is to say, without accompanying instruments.[3][4] The singers arrange themselves in a hollow square, with rows of chairs or pews on each side assigned to each of the four parts: treble, alto, tenor, and bass. The treble and tenor sections are usually mixed, with men and women singing the notes an octave apart.
In their musical form, Sacred Harp songs fall into three basic types. Many are ordinary hymn tunes, mostly composed in four-bar phrases and sung in multiple verses. Fuging tunes contain a prominent passage about 1/3 of the way through in which each of the four choral parts enters in succession, in a way resembling a fugue. Anthems are longer songs, less regular in form, that are sung through just once rather than in multiple verses.[5]

SACRED HARP FOUR HISTORICAL LAYERS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sacred_Harp
The music used in Sacred Harp singing is eclectic. Most of the songs can be assigned to one of four historical layers.
The oldest of these layers comes from 18th century New England, and represents a rendition in shape notes of the work of outstanding early American composers such as William Billings and Daniel Read, who worked as singing masters.
A second layer comes from the decades around 1830, following the migration of the shape note tradition to the rural South. Many of the songs in this layer are believed to be originally secular folk tunes, harmonized in parts and given religious lyrics. As one would expect from the folk origin of such music, it often emphasizes the notes of the pentatonic scale. They often employ stark, vivid harmonies based on open fifths. Most of the songs of this layer were originally composed in just three parts (treble, tenor, bass), with the altos added later, as noted above.
The sound of this musical layer, as well as to some extent The Sacred Harp in general, can be observed by comparing versions of the well-known hymn "Amazing Grace", which is familiar to many Americans in a form such as the following:
A familiar harmonization of "Amazing Grace". Click to hear piano reduction (Ogg format, 234K)
In The Sacred Harp (1991 edition), "Amazing Grace" is harmonized quite differently. Note that the "air", or melody, is in the tenor.
"Amazing Grace" in a form similar to that in The Sacred Harp, 1991 edition. Click to hear piano reduction (Ogg format, 225K)
(As noted above, the title "New Britain" is the name of the tune, not the song as a whole.)
A third layer of Sacred Harp music is from the mid nineteenth century and represents the popular sensibility of that era. A number of these mid-century works have an almost primal simplicity—the harmony is essentially a single extended major chord, and the parts a decoration in slow tempo of that chord.
The most recent layer consists of the songs that were added to the books during the twentieth century. These are the work of musically creative participants in the Sacred Harp tradition, who strove to create songs that would fit into the existing tradition by adopting the style of one of the earlier periods. About a sixth of the Denson edition is taken up with such compositions, dating from as recently as 1990. The twentieth-century composers often have recycled their lyrics from earlier Sacred Harp songs (or from their sources, such as the work of the 18th-century hymnodist Isaac Watts). A number of these modern compositions have become favorites of the singing community, and it is anticipated that future editions of The Sacred Harp will also include new songs.

Using straight tones, memorize the root movements, then add the thirds and sevenths of each chord. Practice scatting four bars of melody, then four bars of improvisation; repeat through the 12 bars several times. Use the syllables “doo bah doo bah do” or “da bah da bah da,” and try to think like a horn player. Record and review your practice to keep track of your improvement.

FOUR MEMBERS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Highwaymen_(country_supergroup)
The Highwaymen was a country music supergroup composed of four of the genre's biggest artists well known for their pioneering influence on the outlaw country subgenre: Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, and Kris Kristofferson. Active as a group between 1985 and 1995, these four artists recorded three major label albums as The Highwaymen: two on Columbia Records and one for Liberty Records. Their Columbia works produced three chart singles, including the number one "Highwayman" in 1985.
Between the years of 1996 and 1999, Nelson, Kristofferson, Cash, and Jennings also provided the voice and dramatization for the Louis L'Amour Collection, a four CD box set of seven Louis L'Amour stories published by the HighBridge Company, although the four were not credited as "The Highwaymen" in this work.
Besides the four formal members of the group, only one other vocal recording artist ever appeared on a Highwaymen recording: Johnny Rodriguez, who provided Spanish vocal on "Deportee", a Woody Guthrie composition, from "Highwayman".
The four original members starred in a movie together: the 1986 film Stagecoach.

four modes each subdivided into two
http://www.beaufort.demon.co.uk/modes.htm
There are various terminologies associated with this "eight-mode system". The easiest and most obvious is that employed in the modern official chant books of the catholic church , in which the modes are simply numbered 1-8 in Roman numerals. However, other nomenclature, based upon different mediæval theorists, is also frequently encountered. One of these, familiar to Hucbald (c. 840-930), to the ninth-century authors of the treatises Musica Enchiriadis and Scolica Enchiriadis , to Aurelian of Réôme (fl. 840-50) and to the author of the ninth-tenth century Commemoratio Brevis de Tonis et Psalmis Modulandis , is first found in a late eighth-early ninth century tonary from S. Riquier (Paris, Bibliothèque Nationale, lat. 13159), which lists four modes: "protus", "deuterus", "tritus" and "tetrardus" (respectively, the Greek words for first, second, third and fourth), and subdivides each of the four into two, the first of each pair being designated "authentus" ("authentic") and the second "plagis" ("plagal"):

Ace Tone commercialized its preset rhythm machine, called the FR-1 Rhythm Ace, in 1967. It offered 16 preset patterns, and four buttons to manually play each instrument sound (cymbal, claves, cowbell and bass drum). The rhythm patterns could also be cascaded together by pushing multiple rhythm buttons simultaneously, and the possible combination of rhythm patterns were more than a hundred (on the later models of Rhythm Ace, the individual volumes of each instrument could be adjusted with the small knobs or faders). The FR-1 was adopted by the Hammond Organ Company for incorporation within their latest organ models. In the US, the units were also marketed under the Multivox brand by Peter Sorkin Music Company, and in the UK, marketed under the Bentley Rhythm Ace brand.[10]

ABBA - When Four Became One
PUBLISHED NOVEMBER 30, 2012
ABOUT THE DOCUMENTARY
We all know the ABBA story, but what did Agnetha, Björn, Benny and Frida do before they became ABBA? When the group won the Eurovision Song Contest with Waterloo, it was not a case of overnight success – the members already had a decade behind them as artists: as struggling solo performers and dance band singers, and as members of some of the biggest band of the Sixties. This compelling film traces the lives of the four ABBA members and their journey towards stardom, step by step, chapter by chapter, showing the organic evolution of one of the truly legendary pop acts.

http://ylok100.qwriting.qc.cuny.edu/2010/02/26/song-analysis-i-want-it-that-way-backstreet-boys/
The song starts off with a four bar guitar instrumental introduction that outlines three significant chords, arpeggiated, that the verse will be based upon: F# minor (The minor VI chord), D Major (IV chord) and A Major (I chord). The instruments used are simple: drums, bass, a guitar that mostly arpeggiates the intro.
What is interesting about this piece is that the tonic (the main key of the song) is not immediately established in the beginning of the song, which is not common with pop songs. When we think of pop songs we usually think of major tonality, equal phrasing and strophic in nature. The original key signature of this piece is in A major, however the very first chord is the minor VI chord which gives an odd progression followed by a plagal cadence from the IV chord to the I chord. The first words of the song is not on a down beat of the bar but acts more like a pickup on the 4th beat in the preceding bar. The verse section of this song utilizes primarily three chords: VI, IV, I with the substitution of the V chord instead of the IV chord towards the end of the phrase. The first phrase, with the lyrics “You are my fire The one desire Believe when I say I want it that way” is broken up into four bar phrases each of which contains four beats, making the pulse of this piece in common time. This outlines the typical symmetric meter of pop music, even the tempo of the piece is moderately paced – not too fast nor is it too slow.
It is also interesting to note that the cadences of the verses are not fulfilled until the name of the song, in the lyrics, is sung: “I want it that way” (progression: vi – V – I) This stresses the importance on the name of the song (which is a contributing factor for the song’s originality and uniqueness) by finally having a perfect cadence instead of a plagal cadence which doesn’t really give a strong solid tone. The only instance in the entire song that actually uses the perfect cadence is whenever the title is sung giving emphasis. The chorus uses three chord progression, IV-V-vi where it is repeated and ultimately goes to its tonic (A major) replacing the vi chord at the end of the phrase. After the first encounter with the chorus the next verse has only two phrases instead of four and it jumps again back to the chorus. Note the second time around, the chorus does something a bit more interesting: “I want it that way” is now using a suspended chord that resolves to the dominant chord of the bridge section: F# minor (making the progression V of the relative minor key). The reason for the suspended chord and not another dominant chord is to suspend the growing tensions which lead to the bridge.
The bridge section of this piece is in the relative minor (A major – F# minor) which gives a contrasting tone to the first half of the piece. It’s interesting to note that the bridge utilizes a different chord progression – it is no longer three chord progression but it uses a descending progression: i-vii-vi-IV-V which basically outlines the minor scale going downwards. After the bridge there is a repetition of the first verse however what is interesting about the verse this time is that the individual male voices outline the F#m7 with an added 9th to give it a more grand feeling before it modulates to the supertonic – B major. Although not a wide key modulation, the transition from the key of A major to B major was made very smooth by using the added 9th and linking it with the overlap of the last key in A major to the very first key in B major.
The overall tone of this piece has a sensitive quality by using a submediant (vi) chord right at the beginning and a progression that’s not as strong.
Melody and lyrics
Why is it that people are able to recall the chorus of the song “Tell me why Ain’t nothing but a heartache Tell me why Ain’t nothing but a mistake Tell me why I never wanna hear you say I want it that way” even if they have no clue on the rest of the lyrics? The chorus is made the most prominent of the song. It actually follows good counterpoint rules, which date back to the baroque era and Bach’s music: what goes up must come down in the melody line and skips of a third or more needs to be resolved step-wise downward. The “Tell me why” sections are exactly a third with a step up to the climax going up and once its reached the top it falls down in a step-wise motion outlining the major scale (Sol-Fa-Mi-Re-Do-Ti-Do) This is really simple but very effective paired with the three chord progression in the bass line. The end of the melody does a small “dip” using the lyrics “…heartache…” and “…mistake…” but it is dramatized by associating these words with the V chord and then instead of going to the tonic it gives us a deceptive cadence (from a V chord to a vi chord instead of the I chord in this case) emphasizing heartache and mistake to be a bit melodramatic. The other interesting thing is that the chorus is in ways a counterpoint by using two interacting melodic lines: One states a question (Tell me why?) and the other follows up (Ain’t nothing but a heartache).
The lyrics of this song are sensitive and the target audience is typically teenage girls. It opens up with a strong using the words “fire”, which gives an image of passion, paired up with “desire”. But it is more interesting to note that not only does the singer want that person to be their fire and desire but he also states that he wants it to be that way.
“You are my fire
The one desire
Believe when I say
I want it that way”
This nature of this song revolves around a failing relationship or one that doesn’t have the usual happy ending.
“But we are two worlds apart
Can’t reach to your heart
When you say
I want it that way”
It’s interesting to note how the two characters use the phrase “I want it that way”. Our singer uses it to state that he wants to be in love with the person where as the other person wants it to end and stay that way.
“Tell me why
Ain’t nothin’ but a heartache
Tell me why
Ain’t nothin’ but a mistake
Tell me why
I never wanna hear you say
I want it that way”
The chorus states the singer questioning the other person’s motive on the break-up where the other person counteracts with the fact that it’s a “heartache” and that it was a “mistake”. However the singer states that he doesn’t want to hear the words to end the relationship.
“Now I can see that we’re falling apart
From the way that it used to be, yeah
No matter the distance
I want you to know
That deep down inside of me…
You are my fire
The one desire
You are, you are, you are, you are…”
The main idea is so that the singer is able to convey to the person that he does not regret being in love nor does he want the his target to have the regret either. The four “You are”s are interesting because it is technically an incomplete phrase and as I mentioned earlier uses a special F#minor7 chord with an added 9th. In a way it kind of accentuates the other person, the added 9th into the chord really makes the tone a bit more heavenly. This is an example of word painting without having the lyrics to finish the phrase, instead it is intended in just the music alone.

SEATING ARRANGEMENT FOUR PARTS IN SQUARE- FOUR PART HYMN
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sacred_Harp
First, the seating arrangement (four parts in a square, facing each other) is clearly intended for the singers, not for external listeners. Non-singers are always welcome to attend a singing, but typically they sit among the singers in the back rows of the tenor section, rather than in a designated separate audience location.
These traits included the assignment of the melody to the tenors, harmonic structure emphasizing fourths and fifth, and the distinction between the ordinary four-part hymn ("plain tune"), the anthem, and the fuging tune
FOUR REGIONS SACRED HARP SINGING
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sacred_Harp
Two other books are currently used by Sacred Harp singers. A few singers in north Georgia employ the "White book," an expanded version of the 1869 B. F. White edition edited by J. L. White. African-American Sacred Harp singers, although primarily users of the Cooper book, also make use of a supplementary volume, The Colored Sacred Harp, produced by Judge Jackson (1883–1958) in 1934 and later revised in two subsequent editions. In his book Judge Jackson and The Colored Sacred Harp, Joe Dan Boyd identified four regions of Sacred Harp singing among African-Americans: eastern Texas (Cooper book), northern Mississippi (Denson book), south Alabama and Florida (Cooper book), and New Jersey (Cooper book). The Colored Sacred Harp is limited to the New Jersey and south Alabama-Florida groups. Sacred Harp was "exported" from south Alabama to New Jersey. It appears to have died out among the African-Americans in eastern Texas.

FOUR BRASS ENSEMBLES 16 TIMPANI
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Requiem_(Berlioz)
The Grande Messe des morts (or Requiem), Op. 5, by Hector Berlioz was composed in 1837. The Grande Messe des Morts is one of Berlioz's best-known works, with a tremendous orchestration of woodwind and brass instruments, including four antiphonal offstage brass ensembles placed at the corners of the concert stage. The work derives its text from the traditional Latin Requiem Mass. It has a duration of approximately ninety minutes, although there are faster recordings of under seventy-five minutes.
The Sequence commences in the second movement, with the Dies irae portraying Judgement Day. The four brass ensembles at the corners of the stage first appear in this movement, one by one; they are joined by sixteen timpani, two bass drums, and four tam-tams. The loud flourish is followed by the choral entry. There is a powerful unison statement by the basses, followed by the choir. Woodwinds and strings end the movement.
FOUR V THREE
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sacred_Harp_hymnwriters_and_composers
The different historical eras used different modes of composition. While the New England composers wrote mostly in four parts (treble, alto, tenor, bass), their Southern successor in the 19th century typically wrote in just three (treble, tenor, and bass). Their work was altered around the turn of the 20th century, when alto parts were added, first in the new Cooper edition (1902) and later to what ultimately became the modern "Denson" edition; the latter were written mostly by Seaborn Denson.
THE FOUR SHAPED NOTES
https://www.britannica.com/art/shape-note-singing
In 16th-century England, singers discovered they could operate effectively with only four syllables (mi, fa, sol, and la). English colonists carried the four-syllable system to North America. Meanwhile, on the European continent, the hexachord was expanded to seven syllables, one for each note in the major scale (in Italy, do, re, mi, fa, sol, la, and si). The seven-syllable system ultimately prevailed during the 19th century in England and America. Shape notation has been adapted to both the four-note fasola and the seven-note doremi system.
Shape notes, also called character notes or patent notes, are one of many notational innovations that, like solmization syllables, attempted to make sight reading easier. (Others included the tonic sol-fa system of Sarah Anna Glover and John Curwen, popular primarily in Britain.) The four shaped notes—a right triangle for fa, an oval for sol, a rectangle for la, and a diamond for mi—were invented by Philadelphia shopkeeper John Connelly about 1790 and made their first appearance in The Easy Instructor (1801), by William Little and William Smith. Over 200 different shape-note tunebooks were printed in the United States between 1801 and 1861, most of them eclectic collections including strophic hymn tunes, odes, and anthems from a variety of American and European sources. Pennsylvania and the Ohio River valley were early centres of shape-note publication. Many shape-note books included “folk hymns” (tunes drawn from oral tradition, harmonized by the compilers or other local singing teachers, and underlaid with sacred texts).
The Sacred Harp (1844) in particular, supported by county and regional conventions in a number of Southern states, kept its four-shape fasola notation and a large corpus of New England psalmody, fuging tunes, spiritual songs, and revival choruses in several 20th-century editions

As there are 4 basic elements, there are also four musical ways, the πρῶτος, the δεύτερος, the τρίτος, and the τέταρτος, and by their formulas the same generate 24 different elements: the [4] κέντροι (central), [4] ἶσοι (basic), and [4] πλάγιοι (plagal), the [4] καθαροί (kathartic), [4] ἄηχοι (aphonic), and [4 παράηχοι (paraphonic)]. Hence, it is impossible to create something outside those infinite melodies of hymns, treatments, revelations, and of other parts of the Holy Wisdom, which is free from the irregularities and spoilages of other musical passions (πάθη).

11th-century theorists like Guido of Arezzo (Regulae rhythmicae) or Hermann of Reichenau (Musica) refused the Dasia tone system, because it displayed tetraphonic tone system and not the systema teleion (corresponding to the white keys of the keyboard) which had all the pitches needed for the "melos of the echoi" (ex sonorum copulatione in "Musica enchiriadis", emmelis sonorum in the compilation "alia musica").[
FOUR BASIC STROKES
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drum_stroke
In music, a drum stroke is a movement which produces a single or multiple notes on drums or other percussion instruments such as cymbals. There are several types of strokes: four basic single strokes, double and other multiple strokes.
Basic Strokes[edit]
The basic strokes produce a single hit or notes while resulting in different sounds. They are produced by different movements.
The full stroke begins with the tip of the drumstick held 8-12" above the striking surface. The drummer strikes the drum and then returns the stick back up to its original position.
The down stroke begins with the tip at the same height as the full stroke, but upon striking the drum head, the drummer keeps the stick low (about an inch above the striking surface).
The up stroke begins with the tip of the stick hovering about an inch above the head of the drum. The drummer strikes the surface, then brings the stick up to full stroke or down stroke position.
In the tap, the stick begins at the same position as the up stroke and remains there after striking.
The four basic strokes are used to produce a variety of accented and unaccented beat combinations.

FOUR TIMPANI FOUR NOTE CHORDS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eight_Pieces_for_Four_Timpani
Eight Pieces for Four Timpani is a collection of short pieces by Elliott Carter for solo timpani – four drums played by one musician. Six of the pieces were composed in 1950. Two new pieces were added in 1966, and the rest were revised in collaboration with percussionist Jan Williams. Carter wrote the pieces as studies in tempo modulation and the use of four-note chords. They are a collection rather than a suite, as Carter suggested no more than four be performed at once. The pieces make heavy use of extended techniques, including playing with the back end of the timpani sticks, varying the beating spot on the drumhead, glissandos, and sympathetic vibration.

In music of the common practice period, cadences are divided into four types according to their harmonic progression: authentic, plagal, half, and deceptive. Typically, phrases end on authentic or half cadences, and the terms plagal and deceptive refer to motion that avoids or follows a phrase-ending cadence. Each cadence can be described using the Roman numeral system of naming chords:

MUSIC ONE TWO THREE AND FOUR
http://www.musicnotes.com/blog/2014/11/14/count-music/
As you can see in the quarter-to-eighth-to-sixteenth note chart above, we count music aloud (“one-and-two-and-three-and-four-and”) to help identify the beat of a piece of music. This allows you to sub-divide the quarter notes (beats) in a simple, audible way.
There are many ways to count music aloud, including the popular use of numbers, “and,” and vowels. Each measure’s downbeats take the number, upbeats the “and,” and subdivisions in-between take vowels including “e” and “a.” Triplets can just be counted out by sounding out “trip-a-let,” using a number and the word “1-trip-let,” “2-trip-let,” or you could use any triple-syllabic word you fancy “chim-pan-zee” “pine-ap-ple” “mus-ic-notes” (ok, maybe the last one is a bit of a stretch). For dotted notes, you simply divide the beats-per-measure out. For example, say you have a measure in 4/4 time with a half-note, dotted quarter and eighth note. You’d count “One…Two, Three-and-four, and.”
OTHER FOUR TIMES
http://www.musicnotes.com/blog/2014/11/14/count-music/
If you only practice counting in 4/4 time, you’ll most likely run into problems when attempting to play in other time signatures. It’s helpful to familiarize yourself with and start practicing a variety of time signatures.
Listen and/or follow along to sheet music for well-known works in somewhat obscure meters like Dave Brubeck’s “Take Five” in 5/4 time, “Money” by Pink Floyd in 7/4 time and “Piano Man” by Billy Joel, which uses 3/4 time (unusual for a pop song). Count aloud with the notes on the sheet music, until you begin to notice and feel patterns. And for even more obscure time signatures, like 7/8 time, try dividing each measure into more manageable parts (2 times 2 and 1 times 3), as this sheet music example of Peter Gabriel’s “Solsbury Hill” displays.
