To begin our discussion of the realities of music, we start with the most basic: the physical reality. It consists of the features of the world that we see in action every day. This includes the variety of ways in which music occurs and can be described, such as through sound waves, instruments, and human motion. There are different ways in which we can create and analyze music. We discuss Fourier analysis, frequency modulation, wavelets, and physical modeling as well as the hearing with the ear and brain.
