Book Theory of Music  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Theory of Music Classic Reprint written by Arthur Foote and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-20 with total page 402 pages. 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.

Book On the Sensations of Tone  Vol  8

Download or read book On the Sensations of Tone Vol 8 written by Hermann L. F. Helmholtz and published by . This book was released on 2016-06-13 with total page 608 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "On the Sensations of Tone as a Physiological Basis for the Theory of Music" is a seminal work in the field of music theory. The book deals primarily with acoustics and the human perception of sound as the basis for all musical theory. The book is divided into three major parts, detailing the scientific composition of vibrations, the interruption of harmony, and the relationship of musical tones. This is a highly technical work that deals significantly with physiological responses to sounds. The book combines text, illustrations, charts, figures, and sheet music to illustrate its point and concludes with a detailed index, allowing this volume to serve as a reference document. Helmholtz's work in "On the Sensations of Tone as a Physiological Basis for the Theory of Music" is the stuff of genius. This text has been foundational for the further study of music theory, and is still considered a must-read text by many academics. "On the Sensations of Tone as a Physiological Basis for the Theory of Music" is one of the most important works ever written on the subject of tone and music theory. Hermann Helmholtz expertly combines his knowledge of both music and physiology to create a text that remains invaluable to this day. This book is thus highly recommended for the studious and educated musician seeking to improve their theoretical knowledge base.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Book of Cambridge Verse Nevertheless, after all deductions have been made, how much true poetry is yet left! He must be hard to please who cannot find intense enjoyment in the Eclogues of Phineas Fletcher, in Cowley's epitaph on Harvey, in the Miltonic stanzas of Gray's Installation Ode, in a score of other pieces, grave, quaint, or classical in their allusive ness of phrasing. Especially grateful must we be to the number of poets, of exquisite feeling and easy mastery of form, who during the last fifty or sixty years have enriched the language with delicate and elegant verse, from which it has been only too difficult to choose because its quantity is so great and its merit so even. Of this we trust we have given a tolerably adequate selection but it would have been easy to multiply it fourfold.
