Muito triste! Tenho uma grande admiração por alguém que orientou mais de setenta teses!
Há um site dele, com vídeos encantadores onde podemos ver sua personalidade extraordinária!

A founding member and the first President​ ​of SMT, Forte was a model for our field--a widely influential adviser, a​ ​productive and agenda-setting scholar, and a tireless advocate for music​ ​theory and its practitioners.

> Allen Forte, born on December 23 1926 in Portland, Oregon, passed​ ​peacefully  in his Connecticut home on  Thursday October 16 2014 at 8:00​ ​a.m. .During World War II he served in the American Navy from 1944 to 1946​ ​on the U.S.S. General Butner in the Pacific. Thanks to the G.I. bill he

> University, and at Yale University, where during forty-four and half years​ ​he advised seventy two Ph.D. students as Battell Professor of the Theory of​ ​Music and as a leading speculative music theorist.  He was the Founder and​ ​First President of the Society of Music Theory, and a Fellow of the
> American Academy of Arts and Sciences. He received an Honorary Doctorate​ ​from the Eastman School of Music. He has earned critical acclaim with​ ​twelve scholarly books and one hundred articles. THE STRUCTURE OF ATONAL​ ​MUSIC ranks as one of the most important contributions to music theory in​ ​the twentieth century. His use of the computer as well as traditional means​ ​of analysis has led to fuller knowledge of musical structure and thereby​ ​enhanced both the understanding and the enjoyment of music. He is survived​ ​by his wife, concert pianist Madeleine Forte, her sons, and her​ ​grandchildren.
