Invariance properties of Schoenberg's tone row system

James Allen Fill, Alan Julian Izenman · ANZIAM Journal · 1980

Abstract This paper organizes in a systematic manner the major features of a general theory ofm-tone rows. A special case of this development is the twelve-tone row system of musical composition as introduced by Arnold Schoenberg and his Viennese school. The theory as outlined here applies to tone rows of arbitrary length, and can be applied to microtonal composition for electronic media.
