Q

Six Geometric Transformations in Music

A

Translation –> Transposition
Reflection about a horizontal axis –> Inversion
Reflection about a vertical axis –> Retrogression
Rotation about 180 degrees –> Retrograde Inversion
Dilation with scale factors greater than 1 –> Augmentation(twice as slowly)
Dilation with scale factor less than 1 –> Diminution (twice as quickly)
