There's a lot of internal tension in those three stars -- plusses and minuses, strange and fortunate inconsistencies. Reti's name is a byword in the academic establishment, but only some of the criticism is justified. Won't say more here, as I'm thinking of publishing something about it ...

One of the best books on music I've ever read. Completely changed how I think about composing.
