Episode 172: Music Theory Across the Cosmere ( feat. Krishna and Paul )
Brooke and Tyler listen intently to guests Krishna Patel and Paul-chan as they teach us all about music theory and how Sanderson's stories blend different aspects into the magic and worlds. Our conversation begins with a description of tone, melody, and rhythms before a crescendo of speculation about how we can apply our musical knowledge to the magic systems of the Cosmere. #AllSpoilers Follow Krishna Patel Follow Paul-chan Songs/clips that can be heard in this episode: Whitacre - Sleep Example of tritones Saint-Saens - Danse Macabre Gayatri Mantra from Battlestar Galactica Example of atonal music Sanskrit chanting Katie Payne Artwork that you could win Support this podcast by becoming a Patron on Patreon Original music by David Gruwier .
