Theory Editorial Review
The book "Music by the Numbers: From Pythagoras to Schoenberg" explores the relationship between music and mathematics. The author has a deep understanding of mathematics but very little about music, focusing exclusively on Western classical music during the time period mentioned in the title. The book includes some insightful information about the link between math and music, but it requires a deep understanding of both fields. The author discusses a few episodes involving famous composers and numbers or famous mathematicians and pitches but provides no real insights. The book is not groundbreaking in its content, but it's still an interesting read for those fascinated with how music has progressed over the millennia through the involvement of mathematicians.
