Seller's Description
In this extremely practical introduction to musical analysis, the author explores the factors that give unity and coherence to musical masterpieces, seeking the answers mainly in the formal and harmonic structure of individual compositions.
The text is divided into two parts: part One deals with the most important analytical methods current in the English-speaking world, treating each in turn. They are presented method by method because each one involves a characteristic set of beliefs and it is important to identify those beliefs i order to avoid applying inappropriate techniques that produce irrelevant data. The question of how you decide what method to adopt is addressed in the second part of the book, in which given compositions rather than given analytical methods form the starting point. The analyses in this section are each designed to highlight a different aspect of analytical procedure.
“Would list it as VERY GOOD, but there is some (minimal) underlining in the chapter on Schenker” |
Over the next few months, I will continue listing a large number of scores for orchestra, string orchestra, wind band, and chamber ensembles that I collected over my 40-year conducting career. I will also be listing most of the (700+) books on music and musicians. If you are looking for something in particular, it is possible that I have it. Message me with a request, and it it is in my collection, I will add it to my store.
Shipping can be combined on books and scores. Message me for a combined invoice prior to paying.
