Is there a correlation between music and magick?

I like to think so.

Music, math and magic are a lot closer to one another than most people realize.

This is true. Especially with regards to mathematics. There's no greater esoteric journey than learning advanced mathematics and trying to use it to explain the nature of all things.

Math makes sense, especially with the Pentagram. Music makes sense too. But I was wondering if there were any essays or texts specifically about music and magick.

Not necessarily "magic" specifically, but check out the Quadrivium.

It's focused on the old system of education - learning number, geometry, music, and cosmology, the quadrivium of knowledge that is the basis for all understanding and the counterpart of the trivium - grammar, logic, and rhetoric, which together with the quadrivium comprise the seven liberal arts.

Music, number, geometry, and cosmology are all basically representations of the same thing - existence itself. These disciplines outline the ways of creation. With a greater understanding of them, you will better understand yourself and the world your in.

Not sure how it directly relates to magic, but I know geometry and number relate to magic, and since music is number in time, music is magic that is moving.

Geometry is number in space, music is number in time, cosmology is number in space and time.

Yes.

What is the difference between a note and a tone?

If you know this difference, you know all that is required to sculpt magic. There are many self proclaimed "STEM field" types, who think the universe is all notes, and no tones. They cannot sculpt magic with any intention, because their mind filters it out. There are people who think that everything is a single tone, and notes are an illusion. They're technically right, but they also can't sculpt magic, because they believe there is nothing to sculpt.

If you know the difference between what's a note, and what's a tone, and can quickly mentally categorize things in your perceptions as "note like" or "tone like," then you can sculpt magic, in addition to beginning to perceive all that you have sculpted accidentally already, by raw chance alone.

I'll start you off, if you're enjoying this belief system so far: the difference a note and a tone is a very note like quality. However, how much something resembles a note like or tone like quality is a tone like quality.

Using this belief system as a seed to grow in your mind's garden, (if you like) as you familiarize yourself with this primary polarity, and learn to "flex" this perception like a muscle, you will learn that music is the language of the cosmos, and sculpting magic is in the most literal sense simply having a conversation with the cosmos, in this language.

why not

Honestly in a lot of ways music is like an argument, or conversation.I wonder if performing or making certain types of music can attract certain things to you. In the literal sense you have people you meet through the music, but what about specific intents? Very interesting.

Yes, sounds create and alter existence. In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
