Foundations of Diatonic Theory : A Mathematically Based Approach to Music Fundamentals (Mathematics Across the Curriculum)

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Foundations of Diatonic Theory is the first introductory, undergraduate-level book published on diatonic set theory, an important but often overlooked sub-field of music theory. It provides an easy entry point into this challenging field and is appropriate for introductory music majors, motivated non-majors, music theorists, and mathematicians with musical interests. This book supplements any Music Theory or Fundamentals of Music course which includes music theory, and is suitable for self-study of basic music theory in a mathematical context. It requires only general mathematical knowledge, and provides the solution for nearly all exercises. This book is part of the NSF-funded Mathematics Across the Curriculum (MATC) project at Dartmouth College developed to achieve the goal of allowing students to focus on their disciplines while improving their mathematical skills.
