Post-Tonal Theory
Analysis
My post-tonal analytical work has focused on the music of Pierre Boulez, George Crumb, Milton Babbitt, and Charles Wuorinen. My analyses model the compositional systems underlying various compositions.
Post-tonal Theory-Composition
Composition Theory
Besides analyzing post-tonal compositions, my theoretical work also focuses on building compositional systems that integrate pitch-class compositional systems with extensions of tonal systems.
Popular Music-Rock
Theory and Analysis
My current theoretical interest focus on building models of the tonal systems for rock music, specifically heavy metal, and analyzing rock compositions through the lens of those systems.
