Posted by PSM113 If you have any papers you have written on similar theoretical subjects I am sure I would enjoy reading them. I only have one or two post-tonal theory papers I have written, but you are welcome to read them if you'd like. Please let me know. Also, simpler papers would be better to start with, since I haven't studied this area in a while.

I studied a lot of music theory at Berklee, although my major was composition, and while I found the theory applied in such books as Introduction to Post-Tonal Theory, by Joseph N. Straus, to be interesting in the course of study, I often have trouble HEARING the relationships that are presented post-composition to the listener. I understand how many find this sort of mathematical study interesting, and even useful for compositional creativity from time to time, but I do have trouble hearing the relationships that theorists often come up with, as do most listeners (including many top-notch composers and musicians).
