Описание: In Composition and Cognition, renowned composer and theorist Fred Lerdahl builds from a project that has occupied him for decades: a comprehensive model of music cognition. Bringing together his dual career in composition and music theory, he reveals the way in which his work in music theory has served as a foundation for his compositional style and how his intuitions as a composer have guided his cognitively oriented music theories. These theories, combined with related theoretical and empirical research, offer an overall picture of the musical mind that has implications for central issues in contemporary composition, including the recurrent gap between compositional method and perceived result and also the tension between cognitive constraints and utopian aesthetic views of musical progress. Lerdahl's succinct volume provides invaluable insights for students and instructors, composers and music scholars, and indeed anyone engaged with contemporary music.
