A monophonic instrument can play at once several voices or lines, for example when interleaving pedal notes and scales. Such patterns may bear both melodic, harmonic, and rhythmic elements and are frequent in cello music. We propose a model of alternating patterns, where regularly spaced pitches are linked with some relation. We also propose an algorithm to list all such patterns. Perspectives include better corpus analysis, and extending and benchmarking such algorithms.
