"Conceived as both a music theoretic treatise and a contribution to the cognitive science of music, Tonal Pitch Space weaves connections between music-theoretic and psychological literature. Music theorists will be interested in the volume's many technical innovations, musicologists in its account of historically evolving tonal space, composers in its potentialities for structuring musical materials, computer musicians in its progress toward modeling the complexities of musical listening, cognitive psychologists in its empirical hypotheses and predictions, and philosophers and critics in its implications for a theory of musical expression."--BOOK JACKET
