Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arthur William Foote is a fitting author for a book on the Theory of Music. He was a classical composer and was a founder of the American Guild of Organists. The American musician also was one of the "Boston Six," which was comprised of respected artists Edward MacDowell, Horatio Parker, Amy Beach, John Knowles Paine, and George Whitefield Chadwick. Published in 1908, Theory of Music was written out of a need to have a musical resource that elaborates on the science of making music without confusing users with highly technical terms and discussions. Even the Harvard-educated Foote himself found music theory books of his time "virtually unintelligible" to him. It was during his serious pursuit in learning more of the science and art of making music that he discovered there was no theory reference that "was in English such as a non-musical person could understand." After more than 2 years of research and preparation, this volume was born. Did Foote's labor of love produce the kind of theory book that he himself was looking for? The answer is YES. Through this edition, the respected composer was able to explain the basics of certain concepts in music using sentence structures and words that are easy to understand. Music students will be delighted with this kind of reference. It should be noted that Foote's version was written more than a hundred years ago and may lack some of the other aspects in music theory present in modern volumes on the same subject. However, the concepts discussed in this edition are essentially similar to current ones. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book La th orie de la musique antique et m di vale written by Michel Huglo and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-07-28 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the final volume in the set of four collections of Michel Huglo's articles to be published in the Variorum series, and focuses on medieval music theory. The point of departure for Huglo's research was his doctoral dissertation on tonaries, published in 1971: as a consequence, he studied the manuscripts of music theory concerning plainchant, and, later, those with writings on music by authors of Late Antiquity as well as the Liber glossarum, with its many definitions of musical terms. In this volume, certain articles consider the interpretation or dissemination of texts, instruction in the art of plainchant, and musical instruction at the university. Others concern the manuscripts of St Augustine's De musica and of the writings of Calcidius, Macrobius, Helisachar, Hucbald, Gerbert of Aurillac, Abbo of Fleury, John of Afflighem, and Hieronymus de Moravia, amongst others. The volume closes with a bibliography of Michel Huglo complementing that published in 1993 and a summary list of his reviews of books on music and liturgy. Ce volume des articles de Michel Huglo termine la série de quatre dans la collection Variorum. Il est centré sur la théorie musicale médiévale. Le point de départ des recherches de Michel Huglo sur la théorie musicale du Moyen Âge est formé par sa thèse sur les tonaires, éditée en 1971: en consequence il etudia les manuscrits de theorie musicale concernant le plain-chant et, plus tard, les auteurs de l'Antiquité tardive et le Liber glossarum qui contient des définitions de nombreux termes musicaux. Dans ce volume, certains articles traitent de l'interprétation ou de la dissémination des textes, des instructions sur l'art du chant, et sur l'enseignement de la musique à l'Université. Ils concernent les manuscrits du De musica d'Augustin, de Calcidius, Macrobe, Helisachar, Hucbald, Gerbert d'Aurillac, Abbon de Fleury, Jean d'Afflighem, Hieronymus de Moravia, et d'autres auteurs. Le volume se termine par une bibliographie de Michel Huglo complétant celle publiée en 1993 et ​​une liste sommaire de ses recensions d'ouvrages sur la musique et la liturgie.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Nature of Harmony and Metre The knowledge to be acquired by him who is desirous of becoming a practical musician has been amply set forth in many treatises. Few have attempted to examine how the laws of music depend upon principles of the human mind, and how that form of musical expression which is true and correct must also be that which is natural to mankind, which is conformed to human reason, and which is consequently open to universal comprehension. Researches of this character will, as a rule, find less general acceptance than if they were directed towards strengthening the powers of execution.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Evolution of the Art of Music The following outline of the Evolution of Musical Art was undertaken, at the invitation of Mr. Kegan Paul, somewhere about the year 1884. Its appearance was delayed by the constantly increasing mass of data and evidence about the music of savages, folk music, and mediaeval music; and by the necessity of exploring some of the Obscure and neglected corners of the wide-spread story of the Art. And though the subject was almost constantly under consideration, with a few inevitable interruptions, the book was not completed till 1893.
