"Music for Piano and Eleven Players" is constructed as a three-part form which was derived from a sonata form. As with sonata form, there is an expository section, a development, and a recapitulation. However, the major differences are a second development section which serves as a slow movement and a recapitulation which has the character of a coda. / The harmonic language is tonal. Two types of tonality are in contrast throughout the work. The first type emphasizes one pitch and allows free chromatic use of the other eleven. The other type is a traditional tertian tonality. The important structural tertian tonalities are indicated by key signatures. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 49-03, Section: A, page: 0376. / Major Professor: John Boda. / Thesis (D.M.)--The Florida State University, 1987.
