Tymoczko identifies five basic musical features that jointly contribute to the sense of tonality, and shows how these features recur throughout the history of Western music. And how do Chopin's works exploit the non-Euclidean geometry of musical chords?In this groundbreaking work, author Dmitri Tymoczko describes a new framework for thinking about music that emphasizes the commonalities among styles from medieval polyphony to contemporary rock. In the process he sheds new light on an age-old question: what makes music sound good?A Geometry of Music provides an accessible introduction to Tymoczko's revolutionary geometrical approach to music theory.
