Leonard Bernstein o muzičkom jeziku

[Znak]

Generativnu gramatiku Noama Čomskog smo imali za diplomski na fakultetu. U vreme kad je nastala ta teorija je mnogima izgledala kao nepotrebno dubinsko analiziranje nečega ?to je ionako (na povr?ini) svakome dobro poznato. U narednim godinama se ispostavilo da je taj pristup primenljiv i u drugim oblastima, prvenstveno za razumevanje kompjuterskih programskih jezika (po?to je sistem u stvari vrlo sličan algoritmima), a evo i u muzici.

Iz Wikipedije:
Generative grammar has been used to a limited extent in music theory and analysis since the 1980s. The most well-known approaches were developed by Mark Steedman as well as Fred Lerdahl and Ray Jackendoff, who formalised and extended ideas from Schenkerian analysis. More recently, such early generative approaches to music were further developed and extended by several scholars.
