Review text

From the preface: This book aims to tell a coherent story of how tonality pervades our experience and our models of music. It combines ideas from operational research, music psychology, music theory and cognitive science. The book serves as a compilation of knowledge about the Spiral Array model and its applications, and is written for a broad audience ranging from the layperson interested in music, mathematics and computing to the music-scientist engineer interested in computational approaches to music representation and analysis, from the music-mathematical and computational sciences student interested in learning about tonality from a formal modelling standpoint to the computer musician interested in applying these technologies in interactive composition and performance.
