This book presents a deep spectrum of musical, mathematical, physical,
and philosophical perspectives that have emerged in this field at the
intersection of music and mathematics. In particular the contributed
chapters introduce advanced techniques and concepts from modern
mathematics and physics, deriving from successes in domains such as
Topos theory and physical string theory.
The authors include many of the leading researchers in this domain, and
the book will be of value to researchers working in computational music,
particularly in the areas of counterpoint, gesture, and Topos theory.
