Is the principle of least change in music the most important principle in music?


It can prepare the listener's brain for very sophisticated intervals or code.


For example:


Old and Wise - the Alan Parsons Project


Against all Odds - Phil Collins


Vocalise - Rachmaninov


The Great Gig in the Sky - Pink Floyd


Le Vent le Cri - Ennio Morricone


The Girl from Ipanema - Jobim
