Per Nørgård infinity series. Pitch table for the first 1K place with graphs and commentary. 

Look below for a table of the pitches of the first 1K positions of the infinity series presented as 3 (expandable) images.

If we take the first 10K pitches and explore them for pitch repetition we get the following:

C# = 1,129      C   = 1,129
D  = 1,036       B   = 1,036
D# =   926       A# =    926
E   =   740        A  =    740
F   =    631       G# =    631
F#  =   538       G   =    538

filters may be used to explore other quantities for symmetry.

and here is a link to some fascinating work by Stefaan Himpe (many thanks for your contribution)

and here is (I hope) some useful tables of pitches for those - like me - of a more musical - and less mathematical outlook.





An excel table of the first 100k places is available on request, just post a contact in the comments column.
