Despite the complexity of some sections, the book can be read by a large audience. Many examples illustrate the concepts introduced. The book is divided into 9 chapters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the first chapter, we tackle the question of the classification of chords and scales. Chapter 2 is a mathematical presentation of David Lewin's Generalized Interval Systems. Chapter 3 offers a new theory of diatonicity in equal-tempered universes. Chapter 4 presents the Neo-Riemannian theories based on the work of David Lewin, Richard Cohn and Henry Klumpenhouwer. Chapter 5 is devoted to the application of word combinatorics to music. Chapter 6 studies the rhythmic canons and the tessellation of the line. Chapter 7 is devoted to serial knots. Chapter 8 presents combinatorial designs and their applications to music. The last chapter, chapter 9, is dedicated to the study of tuning systems.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WORLD SCIENTIFIC PUB CO INC","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":51544113676578,"sku":"9789811284366-new","price":103.05,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0893\/4755\/5618\/files\/9789811284366.jpg?v=1776398766","url":"https:\/\/www.albakireads.com\/products\/compendium-musical-mathematics-9789811284366-new","provider":"AlbakiReads","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
