Mathematics has been used for centuries to describe, analyze, and create music. In this book, Leon Harkleroad explores the math related aspects of music from its acoustical bases to compositional techniques to music criticism, touching on - overtones, scales, and tuning systems - the musical dice game attributed to Mozart and Haydn - the several-hundred-year-old style of bell-playing known as ringing the changes - the twelve-tone school of composition that strongly influenced music throughout the 20th century and many other topics involving mathematical ideas from probability theory to Fourier series to group theory. He also relates some cautionary tales of misguided attempts to mix music and mathematics. Both the mathematical and the musical concepts are described in an elementary way, making the book accessible to general readers as well as to mathematicians and musicians of all levels. The book is accompanied by an audio CD of musical examples.Binding Type: Paperback

Worked in 5th gen Forester
Size: Gravity, Color: Black
This phone cradle worked well in my 2019 Subaru Forester which has kinda tough air vents to connect a cradle. I'm really glad this worked because I tried a couple others without success.

Surprisingly good
Size: Gravity, Color: Deep Space Grey
I bought a very old Lexus as a second backup car and as such, it doesn't have any of the amenities we are used to. This phone holder is surprisingly smartly designed. Every time I put my phone in it I'm impressed that it holds it in place.
