So I think I might
So I think I might focus on "Development of the Technique Traidic Superimposition in the 20th Century" or something like that for my studies. Problem is though, people like Dmitri (Flash ho!) and Timothy Johnson have talked about triadic superimposition in stravinsky/adams. And since Adams is the reason I got into triadic superimposition in the first place (before I ready Johnson's or Tymoczko's papers, I'll have you know), I'd have to look at other composers/pieces to see how this technique is used in defusing tonality or, in Adam's case, going back to using some tonal harmonic vocabulary, though in a different context. That previous sentence made no sense. It's like a sentence I read in International Piano Quarterly that went something like "...and all the discples of Schenker, who died in 1953, blah blah blah...". Of course that morbid modifier was meant for the Deutsch guy but it sounds like all his discples pulled a Haley-Bopp on him and went with him in 1953. Watch those modifiers! And don't dangle your prepositions hanging around at the end of a setence don't ya know.
