One of the twentieth century's most important musical thinkers,
James Tenney did pioneering work in multiple fields, including
computer music, tuning theory, and algorithmic and
computer-assisted composition. From Scratch is a collection of
Tenney's hard-to-find writings arranged, edited, and revised by the
self-described "composer/theorist." Selections focus on his
fundamental concerns--"what the ear hears"--and include thoughts
and ideas on perception and form, tuning systems and especially
just intonation, information theory, theories of harmonic space,
and stochastic (chance) procedures of composition.
