		The composer thus honored this summer was George Perle, whose Concertino for Piano, Winds, and Timpani was performed towards the beginning of the Festival of Contemporary Music and whose Short Symphony received its world premiere at the end of "Fromm Week", with Seiji Ozawa conducting the Boston Symphony Orchestra.
		Perle recalls with a mixture of nostalgia and gratification that he had, in fact, been the composer cottage's very first occupant during the summer of 1967.
		Perle deeply believes, both as composer and analyst, that the last of these possibilities is his chosen direction.

	George Perle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		George Perle (born May 6, 1915 in Bayonne, New Jersey) is a composer and musicologist who has studied with Ernst Krenek.
		He composes with a technique of his own devising called twelve-tone tonality, which is very different from the twelve tone technique (Perle, 1992).

	The Listening Composer
		George Perle takes us into the composer's workshop as he reevaluates what we call "twentieth-century music"--a term used to refer to new or modern or contemporary music that represents a radical break from the tonal tradition, or "common practice," of the preceding three centuries.
		Perle asserts that the post-Schoenbergian serialists have preoccupied themselves with secondary and superficial aspects of Schoenberg's twelve-tone method that have led it to a dead end but he also exposes the speciousness of current alternatives such as chance music, minimalism, and the so-called return to tonality.
		George Perle is one of this country's most respected composers and critics, winner of the Pulitzer Prize in music and a MacArthur Foundation Fellowship.

	George Perle: Reviews
		“George Perle is a remarkably gifted composer who consistently manages to delight the ear while simultaneously stimulating the intellect.
		Almost four decades separate the Perle pieces heard at either end of the concert - Woodwind Quintet No.1 (1959) and Critical Moments (1996) - yet their harmonic grammar is the same.
		Each is characteristic of Perle in it's beautifully enameled sonorities and deft, good-natured instrumental interplay.

		In this classic work, George Perle argues that the seemingly disparate styles of post-triadic music in fact share common structural elements.
		These elements collectively imply a new tonality as "natural" and coherent as the major-minor tonality that was the basis of a common musical language in the past.

		Perle lays out some of the basic issues of organization that grew out of atonality and how the idea of sets or rows was used to provide order.
		Perle also shows the reader how composers use these rows and combine them in ways that create effects that are not a part of any of the rows including constructions that look like major and minor triads.
		My main problem with this book is Perle's consistent use of the word "atonal." This furthers the myth that there is such thing as "atonal music." First of all, serialist work is more accurately "pantonal;" it encompasses all tonalities, and implies all tonalities.

		Now Perle is a committed 12-tone guy and our major expert on the music of Alban Berg, but despite the forbidding title the music turns out to be delightful, even charming.
		The longest of the work's nine brief (around one minute or so) movements recalls the scene in Act 1 of Wozzeck in which the title character and his soldier friend gather sticks in a nearby field--there's the same haunting sense of pastoral desolation (the quiet snare drum rolls add a nicely atmospheric touch).
		There is no "tune", not even in the sense that Perle has them, but for all that the music isn't at all difficult to follow, and the sounds that Schober conjures up are quite striking.

	MTO 5.3: Dissertation Listings
		George Perle, American composer and theorist, has authored an innovative theory called _Twelve-Tone Tonality_ (1977; 2nd ed.
		The study explores the fundamental entities of Perle's theory, the cyclic sets, outside the context of twelve-tone tonality, from which emerge close associations of set classes identified as "imbricated cyclic set families." These families share a number of structural properties, including inversional symmetry, transpositional combination, and equivalence in other modular universes.
		Through the presentation of the tenets of twelve-tone tonality, the theoretical exploration of the cyclic sets, and the analysis of selected works, the dissertation aims to show the depth and potential of the theory, both within and outside its own context.

		As far as I can tell, George Perle's books are the only ones that really come to grips with atonality.
		Having heard one of George Perle's piano sonatas on the radio the other day and once a string quartet of his in concert, I can testify that he is himself a first-rate composer, and isn't it better to read the works of one who has an artistic stake in his subject?
		As it happens, I'm not a particular fan of his music, and I think his analyses tend miss the substance of the music he analyzes, but he is an influential, articulate, and intelligent exponent worth hearing out.

		I just thought to add (when Jon mentioned George's pieces that have been withheld or not shared with the public) one of my first experiences working with you, George.
		Finally, George said, “Well, why don't you take it home and see if you can make anything out of it.” And I looked at it and it was wonderful.
		And George marked it, when he wrote it in 1937 or something like that, “Without any rubato” – absolutely to be played straight.

		Invariant formations are also the side effect of derived rows where a segment of a set remains similar or the same under transformation.
		These may be used as "pivots" between set forms, sometimes used by Anton Webern, see George Perle.
		Also, some composers have used cyclic permutation, or rotation, where the row is taken in order but using a different starting note.
