Reviews

We hear music; we see images. Musicians read staff notation as the rest of us read pictures – and we take such complex literacies – ‘visualcies’ is a better word - for granted. This book takes them apart; jolting our complacency by exploring the possibilities of alternative visual notation systems designed to bridge that sensory gap between hearing and seeing. A pioneering study of the graphic possibilities for the visual representation of music. * Howard Riley, University of Wales Trinity Saint David, UK *
