“This book is a short exposition of important material in the field of mathematics and music. It describes a number of topics to which Amiot has contributed significant research. ... This book should prove to be a real delight for aficionados of mathematics and music. It contains a wealth of important material and is certain to drive further investigations in this fascinating interdisciplinary field.” (James Stephan Walker, Mathematical Reviews, June, 2018)
“Amiot’s nice book gives the state of the art in the usage of DFT of abstract musical structures such as rhythms, scales, chords, pitch class distributions, and so on. … This is possibly the first textbook on the topic. … The target readership includes graduates and advanced undergraduates of computational music science and engineering. Researchers in music should also find it of interest.” (Soubhik Chakraborty, Computing Reviews, May, 2017)
