Recenzje

Astonishing in both its ambition and its achievement. [Organized Time] offers a theory of tonal music that treats harmony, rhythm, and form as separate dimensions that might either reinforce or contradict each other, providing an appealing notation system that permits direct comparison of these dimensions. It profoundly rethinks aspects of tonal theory that we had thought pretty well settled. The theoretical framework is powerful and the analyses-of both familiar and unfamiliar tonal works-are deeply revealing.
