Details
Synopsis
Pulitzer Prize winner George Perle's SERIAL COMPOSITION AND ATONALITY is one of the foundational texts of 20th-century music theory. With detailed analysis of canonical pieces, Perle explicates the techniques of the serial method, making this a necessary resource for interested composers, musicians, and theorists.
Publisher's Notes
First Line: "Atonality originates in an attempt to liberate the twelve notes of the chromatic scale from the diatonic functional associations they still retain in "chromatic" music--to dissociate, so to speak, the chromatic scale from "chromaticism.""
