Introduction
Math and music are two entirely different fields of study, but
there is a strong correlation between them. At some point,
they tend to overlap, and it is common for people good at
math to be good at music. It may seem illogical to compare the
two, but there are more similarities between math and music
than you would imagine and you can use numbers and
mathematical principles to teach or learn music.
Patterns
The biggest similarity between math and music is patterns.
For example, music has repeating verses and choruses while
math uses patterns to explain the unknown.
Conclusion
The descriptions of the relationships between math and music
theory could continue almost indefinitely. We’ve only
scratched the surface of an incredibly vast and intricate
subject, but we can perhaps already see how deeply
interrelated the two disciplines are. And even though music
theory is the analysis of music, there has been a fertile back
and forth between theory and composition that has enriched
our musical canon greatly and would not have
been possible without the application of mathematical
concepts.
