(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Generalized Musical Intervals and Transformations (Hardcover)
I have studied this book, and continue to study it. This text has been a wealth of information for my own compositional work as well as my understanding of integrated serial technique. Milton Babbitt considers David Lewin a genius and Generalized Musical Intervals and Transformations is proof of his statement. In addition to this comment he made recently after Mr. Lewin passed away, he mentioned that a fair portion of his writing remains unpublished. It is my hope that a wise publisher or institution will come along soon and see the value of this important theorist's work, and return the books that are out of print to the presses and publish as much of his remaining work as possible.
