    1. the voice leading (C, Df)(Df, C) reflects off the orbifold’s uppermirror boundary

      C-Db --> Db-C as a reflection off the boundary of the orbifold represents the encoding of note-swapping equivalence.

    2. To model an ordered sequence of n pitch classes, form the quotient space(R/12Z)n, also known as the n-torus Tn. To model unordered n-note chords of pitchclasses, identify all points (x1 , x2 , ... xn) and (x(1) , x(2) , ... x(n) ), where  is anypermutation. The result is the global-quotient orbifold Tn/Sn (17–18), the n-torus Tnmodulo the symmetric group Sn. It contains singularities at which the local topology is notthat of Rn.

      \(T^n/S_n\) represents \(T^n\) if the corresponding similar chords identified by \(\sigma\) were divided out.
