Journal Article
Journal of Music Theory (2008) 52 (2): 251–272.
Published: 01 October 2008
...Dmitri Tymoczko In this article, I consider two ways to model distance (or inverse similarity) between chord types, one based on voice leading and the other on shared interval content. My goal is to provide a contrapuntal reinterpretation of Ian Quinn's work, which uses the Fourier transform...

Published: 01 April 2015
...Jason Yust This article introduces a type of harmonic geometry, Fourier phase space, and uses it to advance the understanding of Schubert’s tonal language and comment upon current topics in Schubert analysis. The space derives from the discrete Fourier transform on pitch-class sets developed...

...Jason Yust Abstract This article demonstrates how to obtain a periodicity-based description of cyclic rhythms using the discrete Fourier transform and applies this to understanding Steve Reich's use of rhythmic canons in a series of works from the early 1970s through the 1990s. The primary...

...Clifton Callender This article generalizes Ian Quinn's recent harmonic characterization of pitch-class sets in equal tempered spaces to chords drawn from continuous pitch and pitch-class spaces. Using the Fourier transform, chords of any real-valued pitches or pitch classes are represented...

...Jason Yust The discrete Fourier transform on pitch-class sets, proposed by David Lewin and advanced by Ian Quinn, may provide a new lease on life for Allen Forte's idea of a general theory of harmony for the twentieth century based on the intervallic content of pitch-class collections. This article...

... repeatedly, I will nickname them the chunking , scalar , and quantization approaches. I will also show that voicing provides a fourth route to approximate set theory, clarifying the musical significance of the others; the appendix discusses a fifth strategy based on the Fourier transform. My main...

... for two sets Y and Z to form identical progression vectors as successors to a given set X. These conditions are framed in terms of various “fourier properties” and “fourier relations,” which are so named because the underlying mathematics involves Fourier transformations. Some of the progressions...
