Download or read book Comprehensive Musical Analysis written by John D. White and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 1994-01-01 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now available in paperback! Evolved from the author's widely used book, The Analysis of Music (Prentice-Hall, 1975; 2nd. ed. Scarecrow Press, 1984), Comprehensive Music Analysis is a guide for acquiring the tools of musical analysis, skills which are essential to every serious musician and musical scholar. The new volume presents material on Heinrich Schenker and reductive linear analysis and additional material on set theoretical analysis. White's theoretical writing is characterized by logic of methodology, clarity of organization, and lucidity of prose. It should be eagerly received by theorists seeking a comprehensive view of current methodology. White's approach to current theoretical dogma is not uncritical. As Gerald Warfield (General Editor of the recent English translation of Schenker's Der Freie Satz) says in his Preface to White's new book,"...we begin to glimpse a powerful tool which does not exist in any single school of theory or musicology, but which draws upon any and all nethodologies as required by the analyst. The opinions in this book are strong. Indeed, there is material which may disturb the dogmatic, yet the author's intentions are clear. White invites you to take your cue for analysis from the compositions themselves rather than from dogma." Replete with musical examples, charts, and diagrams, the book is more than a treatise on analysis, it is a valuable tool for the advanced student of music as well as the musical scholar.

Download or read book Analysis of 18th and 19th Century Musical Works in the Classical Tradition written by David Beach and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-05-04 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Analysis of 18th- and 19th-Century Musical Works in the Classical Tradition is a textbook for upper-level undergraduate and graduate courses in music analysis. It outlines a process of analyzing works in the Classical tradition by uncovering the construction of a piece of music—the formal, harmonic, rhythmic, and voice-leading organizations—as well as its unique features. It develops an in-depth approach that is applied to works by composers including Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert, Schumann, and Brahms. The book begins with foundational chapters in music theory, starting with basic diatonic harmony and progressing rapidly to more advanced topics, such as phrase design, phrase expansion, and chromatic harmony. The second part contains analyses of complete musical works and movements. The text features over 150 musical examples, including numerous complete annotated scores. Suggested assignments at the end of each chapter guide students in their own musical analysis.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Complete Musical Analysis: A System Designed to Cultivate the Art of Analyzing and Criticising and Assist in the Performance and Understanding of the Works of the Great Composers of the Different Epochs Among the vast army of music students busily engaged in acquiring technical skill in manipulating instruments and voices, there are comparatively few who cultivate the critical faculties in listening properly to music, or have sufficient analytical knowledge to enable them to name and classify a composition after a single hearing. Some interesting books have been written in which certain music is recommended to be performed for pupils; but listening to music is an art, and can be acquired only through a systematic series of exercises and instructions, unless one is content to wait for the gradual absorption of this information through a professional career of many years. Acknowledgment is also made of the fact that even in small cities one may have the privilege of listening to the greatest artists, including such birds of passage as von Biilow, Rubinstein, d'Albert, Klindworth, Rosenthal, Essipoff and Aus der Ohe. But, in truth, considerable of this heavy cannonading is (so to say) fired over the heads of the average student. Every embryo pianist is improved by hearing a recital by any of these artists; but in the majority of cases they should descend somewhat from their lofty pedestal to the common earth upon which the student stands, if others than advanced students are to be hit by their artistic missiles. But it is often impossible for these distinguished virtuosi (who, in addition to their inherent gifts, have enjoyed every possible advantage) to comprehend the chaotic state of musical culture outside the radius of our large cities. The text-books, the laws of the country which permit the titles of "Professor" and "Doctor" to be bestowed upon persons who are ignorant of the very nomenclature of music, and that spirit of American impatience which seeks to acquire everything by a patent process, these are responsible for the present uncultivated state of musical taste.

Download or read book The Piece as a Whole written by Hugh Aitken and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 1997-10-30 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Designed to serve music students at the college level, this informal approach to music theory relates the technical aspects of music with the expressive character of the art. The approach is holistic in the sense that it focuses on the interrelationships between the piece as heard by a socially conditioned listener and the notated, performed score: it aims to bridge the gap between the technical and expressive aspects of music. The composers addressed are: Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Chopin, Schumann, Brahms, Wagner, Debussy, and Schoenberg. There are separate chapters on the problems of meaning in music and on the interdependence of aesthetic and ethical value-judgments. This novel and exciting approach to music theory will be a welcome addition to the musical analysis literature.

Book excerpt: This book contains a complete and accurate mathematical treatment of the sounds of music with an emphasis on musical timbre. The book spans the range from tutorial introduction to advanced research and application to speculative assessment of its various techniques. All the contributors use a generalized additive sine wave model for describing musical timbre which gives a conceptual unity, but is of sufficient utility to be adapted to many different tasks.

Providing specific help on every aspect of musical analysis, this text uses many of the compositions found in Charles Burkhart's ANTHOLOGY FOR MUSICAL ANALYSIS, but it allows students the freedom to explore works that they already own.
