He has postulated a General Theory of Intervallic Classes, applicable to macro and microintervallic scales of duration and of pitch.

tatement

The techniques and theories I have developed are based on mathematics and acoustics ; the more neutral they remain, the better they serve the description of the imaginary : it is my ear---there everything is allowed---that gives birth to my music, which becomes the accurate, almost phonographic representation, of every detail coming from my inner hearing experiences.
