Chapter Chapter 5 in Looking at Numbers, 2014, pp 57-67 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract The number 12 has a special significance for musicians, since that is the number of notes in the chromatic scale, and since 12-tone music, after Schoenberg, became an international style, with hundreds of theoretical essays and thousands of compositions (e.g. [3]).
