Excerpt:
Serialism gains its definition from three fundamental criteria corresponding to the three main phases in its evolution:

1: as a system negating an earlier order regarded as obsolete (tonality), a system in which the positive rules and the formal proscriptions are aimed at excluding privilege and tonal reminiscence of any kind.

2: as the promulgation of a new general grammar based on total chromaticism (in the first place of pitch, and later of durations, intensities etc.)

3: as a new philosophy of music (and not a "philosophy of new music") based on concepts and working principles of discontinuity, relativity and plurality.
