Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of Musical Form This book is not a text-book. It is intended for any cultured reader who takes an interest in good music. At the same time I must add that a work of this nature would have been of great help to me when I was a young student of music. Text-books contain such a mass of detail that it is next to impossible for the beginner to get any conception whatsoever of the general principles of the art of composition. He plods up the rocky slopes of Parnassus, catching at every ledge, bruised with falls, foot-sore and weary, to be rewarded with a vision of the antres vast and deserts idle only when he has scaled the heights and reached the top. These pages give a brief description of the paths that lead to this desirable summit; but do not imagine, casual reader, that the perusal of this book will make you a composer. At best, it is but a captive balloon from which you can snatch a bird's eye view of the panorama nearest you. The wings of the eagle alone can soar into the blue.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Primer of Musical Forms: A Systematic View of the Typical Forms of Modern Music By Form in Music is meant the characteristic shape which a musical idea assumes through the operation of its individuality in Rhythm, Melody, and' Harmony. Form has reference to the length of a piece as a whole; to the extent and variety of its subdivisions; to its modulatory structure, its characteristic rhythms, etc. In short, as Lobe says, to all those peculiarities in which different pieces of music appear unlike each other.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Musical Groundwork: Being a First Manual of Musical Form and History, for Students and Readers I have not thought it necessary to burden the reader with cross references in so small a volume, and I would point out that, frequently throughout the book, where a subject appears to terminate abruptly its continuation will be seen on another page. Take the case of Opera. In this description, slight reference only is made to the Over ture, but a fuller account of this movement appears in the section on Musical Forms. Again, in the chapter on Instruments and Instrumentation, much concerning the Symphony has been omitted there in order that it may find a place where the Symphony is treated as a Form. Not a little, too, concerning early Instrumentation will be found in the treatment of the Opera and Oratorio. Finally, the little work, small as it is, covers an immense historic ground and critical survey. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of Music: An Historical Sketch of the Changes in Musical Form I freely confess that I have chosen the second course, not from any lack of modesty, but because I believe that the presentation of history is a matter less of knowledge than of point of view. For this reason the invitation of the Radio Corporation attracted me particularly, as it gave me the opportunity of testing the soundness of the ideas developed in my book on Wagner and my pamphlet on The Nature of Tone in the larger field of music history as a whole. These lectures, which were given under the title of The History of Change in Music, are here presented in book form. While the title has been changed, the lec ture form has been retained because it gives the original layout of the material.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Form in Music: With Special Reference to the Designs of Instrumental Music IN issuing the present volume on the subject Of Form in Instrumental Music - a subject that has taken Of late years a place of considerable importance in musical education-the author desires to state, in as few words as possible, some of the principles that have guided him in the putting together of the work, and to refer at the outset to one or two points upon which he has felt himself compelled to differ from certain widely-accepted views, chiefly in the classification of the various types Of musical composition. I. - It has been thought wise to confine the remarks throughout the work mainly to the region of instrumental music, for it is here that the art of design is manifested on its most detached and essential side, i.a., apart from the exigencies Of an association with words or with dramatic situations. Moreover, the inclusion of an adequate description of the various vocal forms, the Opera, the Oratorio, &c., would have caused the volume to assume unwieldy proportions, and thus have defeated the aim and Object for which it was written.

Download or read book Classical Form written by William E. Caplin and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2000-12-28 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Building on ideas first advanced by Arnold Schoenberg and later developed by Erwin Ratz, this book introduces a new theory of form for instrumental music in the classical style. The theory provides a broad set of principles and a comprehensive methodology for the analysis of classical form, from individual ideas, phrases, and themes to the large-scale organization of complete movements. It emphasizes the notion of formal function, that is, the specific role a given formal unit plays in the structural organization of a classical work.
Download or read book Analysis of the Evolution of Musical Form Classic Reprint written by Margaret H. Glyn and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-14 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Analysis of the Evolution of Musical Form The general drift of this theory of music has already been indicated in The Rhythmic Conception of Music. The object of the present volume may be briefly stated to be the application of the evolutionary principle to practical music, the essential motive power of which is to be found in rhythm. By this means it is possible to produce an analysis which, as promised in the former volume, shall weld all the various parts of musical education into one consistent and logical whole. The theory has arisen not from abstract ideas, but out of the study of music. It is not so much a theory about music as an endeavour to translate into the terms of the intellect the form of the impressions made upon the musical imagination - in short, to hold the mirror up to Music. It is hoped that those who have themselves the intuitive knowledge will recognise the likeness. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Grasp a composer's ideas, and the way in which he expounds and develops them. In this he follows a logical and systematic way, and unless we have an insight into the system it will be difficult, if not impossible, to follow the composer's train of thought or his musical argument, as we might call the development Of his themes. We cannot understand a written sentence unless we Observe the punctuation, or the way in which secondary or tributary sentences may be interpolated. That grammatical knowledge has become so thor oughly absorbed by us in the course of time, that we are scarcely, if at all, conscious of the rules.

Download or read book The Homophonic Forms of Musical Composition written by Percy Goetschius and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Homophonic Forms of Musical Composition: An Exhaustive Treatise on the Structure and Development of Musical Forms, From the Simple Phrase to the Song-Form With "Trio," For the Use of General and Special Students of Musical Structure This book undertakes no more than the systematic enumeration and exhaustive explanation of all the formal designs and methods of structural treatment in the homophonic domain of musical composition, as revealed in classical or standard writings. The student who aims to acquire the Science of composition, is expected to Imitate these designs and methods, and to look for additional illustrations and confirmations in general musical literature. This will develop skill and facility, will induce correct habits of musical thought, will enrich the mind with a fund of resources, and stimulate the imagination to increased responsiveness and activity. But, further than this, the book lays no claim to furnishing clues to the subtle Art of composition. In converting his theoretical knowledge into successful practice, - into a means to an end, - the student can appeal to no other authority than that of his own fancy, good taste, and natural or acquired judgment. The examples given for reference must be inspected, - if not totally, at least in great part. No student should hope to be entirely successful and efficient as a composer without possessing quite extensive acquaintance with the products and processes of successful writers. Therefore, the pupil must regard the conscientious examination of these carefully selected quotations, as a very significant and distinctly essential part of his study. This applies more especially to the works cited in Divisions I, II and III. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
