EBOOK Unfoldings Essays in Schenkerian Theory and Analysis
Opis
Carl Schachter is the pre-eminent practitioner in the world of the Schenkerian approach to the music of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, which focuses on the linear organization of music, and which now dominates discussions of the standard repertoire in university courses and in professional journals. This volume gathers some of his finest essays, including those on rhythm in tonal music, Schenkerian theory, and text setting, as well as a pair of analytical monographs on Bach's Fugue in B-flat major from Volume 1 of the Well-Tempered Clavier and Chopin's Fantasy, Op. 49.
