"A goldmine of information...this is probably the single most
important examination of a Boulez composition."
-Jason Gibbs of Notes, December 1992
"An important part of the work is dedicated to a minute analysis of
my Marteau sans Maitre. I was very much impressed by his knowledge
and acute sense of analysis."
-Pierre Boulez
"It is still the greatest single step forward in Boulez studies so
far published...and serves to renew one's admiration for the fact
that such eloquently febrile music should stem from such coolly
calculated mazes and matrices. The mystery may be reduced, but the
magic is enhanced."
-Arnold Whittall of Music and Letters, April 92
"Legions of serial analysts...will study and quote from it for some
time to come. Koblyakov's penetration of Boulez's compositional
processes is extraordinarily deep and thorough."
-F. Goosen of Choice, July/August 91
