"Starting from examples by influential composers such as Stravinsky, Schonberg and Bartok, Ton de Leeuw presents a lucid investigation of key musical elements like rhythm, melody, simultaneity and timbre. He creates a broader understanding of concepts never explored systematically before by introducing new terminology and definitions. Also covered are exoticism and folklore, free atonality and 12-note music. This edition includes a 1995 essay on the period beyond 1964."--BOOK JACKET.
