(A) The fifth and sixth bars of Mozart K.448. (B) The retrograde version of the two bars in (A), which was obtained by arranging the component notes of Mozart K.448 in a reversed sequence that maintained the same physical properties as the original, except for the melodic patterns. (C) The rhythm of the two bars in (A), which preserved only the rhythm component (the pitch was changed to the same). (D) The pitch for the two bars in (A), removing the rhythm by distributing the notes uniformly in a bar.
