PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Julian Hook holds PhDs in both mathematics and music theory, as well as graduate degrees in architecture and piano performance. His work involving mathematical approaches to the study of music has appeared primarily in music theory journals but also at conferences of the American Mathematical Society and in the pages of Science. Since 2003 he has taught at Indiana University, where he is a former chair of the music theory department. He is a past president of Music Theory Midwest and was the founding reviews editor of the Journal of Mathematics and Music.
The 'mathy' quality of much recent music theory has long been a barrier to its comprehension. No more. Julian Hook is a master explainer and, thanks to this book, music theorists and interested musicians now have an effective on-ramp not only to understanding but also to deep enjoyment of the rich regularities that can be heard to underpin musical experience. * Joseph Straus, CUNY Graduate Center * Exploring Musical Spaces draws together the most important results in algebraic and geometric music theory of the last fifty years. Julian Hook's treatise, featuring the author's signature clarity and depth of insight, will open this dazzling field to a new generation of scholars. * - Ian Quinn, Yale University *
