Allen Forte provides a rigorous analytical examination of Igor Stravinsky's seminal 1913 ballet score. By applying set-theoretic methodology to the complex harmonic structures of the work, the study elucidates the innovative pitch-class organizations that define the composition's revolutionary soundscape and historical significance.
