Ideological models of music as the second mode of symbolic representations

Technological models of music as the first mode of symbolic representations (at the 2nd phase, not at the 1st)
Changes in situational relevance
Pre-focusFocus formulationPost-focus
 Notations as the foundation of gestural language of the concert pieces (iconic mode)During and after focus formulation the situational relevance of the iconic mode may expand to other relevance types, such as studying the traditions of performance transmitted in the articulation marks
 Own rehearsing as the means to gain control over the gestural language of the pieces (1st enactive)During and after focus formulation, the situational relevance of the 1st enactive mode may expand to other relevance types, such as studying the gestural language of other performers
 Study of the topic and concert pieces through listening of audio recordings (2nd enactive)During and after focus formulation, the situational relevance of the 2st enactive mode may expand to other relevance types, such as conducting different analysis based on recordings
 Pre-focus, the symbolic modes appear as secondary in relevance to enactive and iconic modesDuring and after focus formulation, the situational relevance of certain symbolic modes may increase, such as technological models (1st symbolic) and other symbolic information
