...Future. In his present style (Canticum Sacrum, In Memoriam Dylan Thomas), Stravinsky is experimenting with the serial or tone row technique of Arnold Schoenberg (see below), whom he once regarded as the leader of an alien musical camp. Said protean Igor Stravinsky on his 75th birthday: "I simply cannot do without a tonal row, and have come more and more to feel that it is 'the way of the future...

A.P.'s version was offered on an exclusive basis to the first member newspaper in any territory that asked for it. When the book became a sellout, publishers who had been beaten to the A.P. series went to work to find another one.
