Abstract: Analysts of twelve‐note music tend to treat this repertoire as if it were composed of numbers rather than notes. The first part of this article asks how they might treat this music as if it were music. A theoretical position is developed via close readings of the work a number of theorists and philosophers, notablyRogerScruton andTheodorW.Adorno. InPartII, the potential of the position developed inPartIis tested in a review of three books on twelve‐note music by Nikos Skalkottas andLuigiDallapiccola.
