At what elapsed time in the example does another part appear to join in? Characterize the sound of the music from this point on. What happens at 1:46 that adds to the rhythmic density?
What will be an ideal response?
• 0:47—At about this time another part enters that is distinctly independent, yet interlocked and interwoven with the opening part which continues to flow along. The music almost takes on the character of two different pieces of music being played at the same time, yet in spite of sounding very polymetric—that is, more than one metric grouping of beats occurring at the same time—the music sounds joined together through a subtle rhythmic undercurrent. (See also Locke's description of the polymetric interplay and shifting between a three and four feel depending upon how you hear and feel the grouping of the pulses.)
• At 1:46 a rattle (hosho) enters.
