Riguardo questo articolo

1984. viii, 177pp. "This extraordinary contribution to musical theory will interest composers, theorists, performers, and all listeners who wish to explore a new way of thinking about music. Robert Cogan investigates the many mysteries of musical sound by using sound spectrum photographs, a method based on newly developed technology. In works as diverse as a Ti-betan chant, "Strange Fruit" sung by Billie Holiday, the Mozart Requiem, and an electronic composition by Milton Babbitt, Cogan demonstrates that spectrum photographs can reveal significant features of both composition and performance, showing the unfolding sonic patterns of entire musical compositions in a way that has not been possible before." Some shelf wear to unclipped dust jacket. Both book and jacket are otherwise in very good condition. All contents are tight and clean. There are no inscriptions. The jacket is enclosed within an easily removed clear plastic protective cover.
