Pattern, repetition and tonality define music fir me. Sent from my iPhone It's the subject heading that starts things off on the wrong foot and sets the wrong context.

I don’t see anything “absolutist” here. Nowhere was it started that repetition is the only thing that defines music.
I’m so behind on this thread, but the whole title makes me want to vomit. What’s the basis for forwarding such absolutist based questions or statements? Have we not learned anything about the history and philosophy of art? Since when can art be confined and constrained by absolutist principles? Seems to me that repetition is neither sufficient nor necessary in defining music.
