Preview Music and Mathematics: From Pythagoras to Fractals

Description:
From ancient Greek times, music has been seen as a mathematical art. Some of the physical, theoretical, cosmological, physiological, acoustic, compositional, analytical and other implications of the relationship are explored in this book, which is suitable both for musical mathematicians and for musicians interested in mathematics, as well as for the general reader and listener.In a collection of wide-ranging papers, with full use of illustrative material, leading scholars join in demonstrating and analysing the continued vitality and vigour of the traditions arising from the ancient beliefs that music and mathematics are fundamentally sister sciences. This particular relationship is one that has long been of deep fascination to many people, and yet there has been no book addressing these issues with the breadth and multi-focused approach offered here.
