Math and Music theory books Are there any good books on musical theory from a mathematical standpoint?
Is "Music theory and mathematics : chords, collections, and transformations", edited by Jack Douthett, Martha M. Hyde, and Charles J. Smith, one on them?
 A: I don't know which level you mean, but Mathematics and Music seems nice. There is also Musimathics, which seems more advanced. [Disclaimer: I don't have first-hand experience with either book.]
A: Besides the ones already mentioned, there is A Geometry of Music: Harmony and Counterpoint in the Extended Common Practice by Dmitri Tymoczko, which takes an orbifold approach.
A: If you want to understand scales from a mathematical/dsp perspective, and why a certain scale is the most "natural" for the music of a given instrument or culture, you should check out Tuning, Timbre, Spectrum, Scale by Sethares.
A: There's Music: a mathematical offering by Dave Benson. It can be downloaded from his website.
There's Philip Ball's the Music Instinct, although this would be more from the science point of view than the mathematical one.
A: If you like category theory and topos theory you might want to look at Mazzolas, Topos of Music: Geometric Logic of Concepts, Theory, and Performance
A: I don't think it's explicitly mathematical, but Peter Westergaard's An Introduction to Tonal Theory might be appealing (I haven't read it myself).
There is also a blog which seems to have much about it:

A: Don't know the book you cite, but some good references are:
Mathematical Theory of Music, by Franck Jedrzejewski
 Also by him, and Tom Johnson, Looking at Numbers, might interest you as well
Of course the one mentioned above Topos of Music, though in my opinion tends to take things a little too far from music.
Music and Mathematics: from Pythagoras to fractals, from Oxford University Press
Fractals in Music, by Charles Madden.
These last two seem to me a lot more adequate as music theory books.
A: Along our colleagues contributions (Mazzola and Tymoczko), check out David Lewin’s “Generalized Musical Intervals and Transformations”. Also search a few papers by Richard Cohn.
In the rhythm domain, Godfried Toussaint’s “The Geometry of Musical Rhythm” and Miles Okazaki’s “Visual Reference for Musicians”.
A: Math and Music 
      Kids of new generation should have different methods of training. They are capable to perceive information faster, with cross-modal processing, activating all senses at once : visual perception, audio analyzers, neuromotor functions.
      It is well known that the difficulties in the perception of any information, including musical one, cause strain of the main functional systems in the child’s organism. One can see the interdependence between the perception of information ( Readout Algorithm ) and the synapse  transmission (Action Potential ).It proves the possibility of development of muscular fatigue in hands depending on the quantity of eyeballs’ fluctuations.
      The innovative technology " Reflection " gives us some explanation in this direction and raises the topic on the necessity of applying of Digital Key in Elementary Music Education.

A: Amiot, Emmanuel. 2016. Music Through Fourier Space. Springer.
From the Springer website:

This book explains the state of the art in the use of the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) of musical structures such as rhythms or scales. In particular the author explains the DFT of pitch-class distributions, homometry and the phase retrieval problem, nil Fourier coefficients and tilings, saliency, extrapolation to the continuous Fourier transform and continuous spaces, and the meaning of the phases of Fourier coefficients.

Perspectives of New Music 49/2 (Summer 2011) is devoted almost entirely to "Tiling Rhythmic Canons", including articles by many of the authors mentioned in other posts.1

1 The origin of the mathematics in this book can be found in Dan Vuza's four-part article
"Supplementary Sets and Regular Complementary Unending Canons" in Perspectives of New Music (vols. 29/2–31/1). It is the founding article of an area of research ("Tiling Rhythmic Canons") for many of the authors mentioned here, including Tom Johnson, Guerino Mazzola, Emmanuel Amiot, Carlos Agon, and Moreno Andreatta.
A: I have not the reference but the Great Leonahrd Euler wrote a book on the subject.Considered at the 18th century as too mathematical for the musicians and too musical for the mathematicians.
Ps:Make a comment if you have found something.
A: Maybe the The Structure of Atonal Music by Allen Forte
