Time-point

Time-point

In music a time-point (point in time) is the beginning of a sound, rather than its duration. In serial music a time point set, proposed by Milton Babbitt (1962), is a temporal order of pitches in a tone row which indicates the instants at which the notes start. This has advantages over a duration scale or row built from multiples of a unit, as proposed by Karlheinz Stockhausen (1957). (Raods 2001, p.78)
