Book Description:
|
The book explores cellular pivots as a new means of progression, functional tonality having disappeared in much of contemporary music. Béla Bartók serves as a kind of father figure to Chen Yi and George Crumb - stylistically, technically, and even philosophically. These affinities provide insight into universal principles of the post-tonal era.
