I propose:

LIED DI LUCIANO BERIO: A PROPOSAL FOR ANALYSIS BETWEEN SETS OF PITCHES, DURATIONS AND DYNAMICS*

http://www.gatm.it/analitica/numeri/volume5/numerounico/2.htm

This is the premise

Lied by Luciano Berio is a short composition for solo B-flat clarinet which, although not assigned to the Sequenza group, presents numerous analogies with compositional procedures that we can trace in many of them. This analysis intends to identify the fundamental nuclei of the work regarding pitches, durations and intensities, showing their relevance in relation to their distribution. From a methodological point of view, we will mainly use Pitch-class Set Theory which, as is known, deals solely with pitch configurations [1]; we will then set up

the application of some set-theoretic methods also for the rhythmic and dynamic parameters.

For those interested in the discussion, one could reason aloud

...but then is it true that you are "sadistic", so that one gets scared.

Really interesting, thank you.

Finally I see in practice the application of that cursed theory
