Kasper Sloots:

This study is the fourth edition of my private research into the music of Frank Zappa, augmented with several recent additions. The first printed version was finished in April 2000, simultaneously with an internet release as www.zappa-analysis.com. The site keeps attracting more visitors than I had expected, so I considered it worthwhile to come up with a second version in September 2001, a third in 2007 and this one in 2012. Compared to the first one it has about eight times increased in size. The number of sections as well the number of note examples has been extended. The conclusion has remained the same, nor are there any significant changes upon the first one included. I extend the site every once in a while. See the on-line what's new section for recent additions.
