Abstract "Music notations are drawings, of course, but how can we determine exactly what kind of drawing they may be? And what other drawing methods are in use that can illuminate what is happening in a music notation? How do we explain the persistence of this extraordinary visualizing system? David Griffin explores the coding that musical notation offers"-- Provided by publisher.
