What is commonly called "order" contributes to predictability and routine, but order has diverse forms, not all of them strictly concerned with organization.
Certain forms of order reflect juxtapositions of the simple and the complex. Some involve greater, more expansive schemes of perception and understanding, such as the rise and fall of things, for instance, or awareness of processes in the way of, say, emergence, convergence, and dispersal. Others are discernible as guides to movement, or to the direction of attention to specific objects or ideas.
In such ways do the arts, and particularly those involving music and sound, realize concepts of order, in clear contrast to disorder and pointless chaos.
