Musical Set
A set (pitch set, pitch-class set, set class, set form, set genus, pitch collection) in music theory, as in mathematics and general parlance, is a collection of objects. In musical contexts the term is traditionally applied most often to collections of pitches or pitch-classes, but theorists have extended its use to other types of musical entities, so that one may speak of sets of durations or timbres, for example.Wittlich, Gary (1975). "Sets and Ordering Procedures in Twentieth-Century Music", ''Aspects of Twentieth-Century Music'', p.475. Wittlich, Gary (ed.). Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey: Prentice-Hall. . A set by itself does not necessarily possess any additional structure, such as an ordering or permutation. Nevertheless, it is often musically important to consider sets that are equipped with an order relation (called ''segments''); in such contexts, bare sets are often referred to as "unordered", for the sake of emphasis. Two-element sets are called dyads, three-e ...

Time-point
In music a time point or ''timepoint'' (point (geometry), point in time) is "an instant, analogous to a geometrical point in space". Because it has no duration (music), duration, it literally cannot be heard, but it may be used to represent "the point of initiation of a single pitch, the repetition of a pitch, or a simultaneity (music), pitch simultaneity", therefore the beginning of a sound, rather than its duration. It may also designate the release of a Musical note, note or the point within a note at which something changes (such as dynamic level). Other terms often used in music theory and analysis are ''Attack (music), attack point''Lejaren Hiller and Ramon Fuller, "Structure and Information in Webern's Symphonie, Op. 21", ''Journal of Music Theory'' 11, no. 1 (Spring 1967): 60–115. Citation on p. 94. and ''starting point''. Milton Babbitt calls the distance from one time point, attack, or starting point to the next a ''time-point interval'', independent of the duration ...
