This text provides the most comprehensive analytical approach to post-tonal music available; from Impressionism to recent trends. It covers music from the early 1900s through the present day; with discussion of such movements as Minimalism and the Neoromanticism; and includes chapters on rhythm; form; electronic and computer music; and the roles of chance and choice in post-tonal music. Chapter-end exercises involve drills; analysis; composition; as well as several listening assignments.

My go-to book for music biz informationBy Afi ScruggsThis is one of six must-have books in my library. I rely on it.
