- Accented and unaccented passing notes
- accented in the Pavan, bar 1 with the C sharp in the first treble viol
- unaccented in the Galliard, bar 1, with the D in the first treble viol
- accented in the Pavan, bar 1 with the C sharp in the first treble viol

- The harmonic character of the music is largely created by the polyphonic movement of the parts, though at times there is a strong sense of a logical harmonic structure, particularly at the cadences

- Stepwise
- Rhythm and Metre
- Pavan in duple time and Galliard in triple
- Rhythmic character of the two movements differs considerably, reflecting the very different moods of each one
- Within each part, rhythmic patterns are rarely repeated from one bar to the next
- resembles writing for voices
- Galliard has extensive use of dotted crotchet-quaver rhythms in the first strain
- Bar 13 of Galliard all five parts have the same rhythm (homorhythm).
- The Galliard has, in bars 1-2 and 5-6, examples of very close rhythmic imitation which give the feel of syncopation (first treble and bass parts
- Bars 6-7 of Galliard typified by use of a hemiola pattern. Other examples include bars 14-15 and 22-23
- Pavan in duple time and Galliard in triple
