If it's "elemental", that might be the best thing. Interesting music is usually a more complex composite of individual musical elements. "Composite" is kind of the opposite of "elemental".

Besides, the Plane is still being torn apart by internal wars over which of the Elements of the Notes should be considered the root frequency (leading factions being for Elemental A or Elemental C), as well as all the dissonance created by trying to round up an army that either is or isn't in just intonation with their leader. And that was before the Cabal stuck their nose in with their A = 432 Hz nonsense to sir the pot.

The Allies have just bridged the Rhine and are reducing border strongholds one by one. The PCs are part of an OSS team assigned to infilterate Germany and prepare for the invasion. Possible plot threads include capturing fleeing Party officials, repressing the rumored "Werewolf" terrorist organization, negotiating with local leaders for surrender, and intrigue with the NKVD agents coming from the other direction with similar missions.
