Tonality and Transformation is a groundbreaking study in the analysis of tonal        music. Focusing on the listener's experience, author Steven Rings employs        transformational music theory to illuminate diverse aspects of tonal hearing - from        the infusion of sounding pitches with familiar tonal qualities to sensations of        directedness and attraction. In the process, Rings introduces a host of new        analytical techniques for the study of the tonal repertory, demonstrating their        application in vivid interpretive set pieces on music from Bach to Mahler. The        analyses place the book's novel techniques in dialogue with existing tonal        methodologies, such as Schenkerian theory, avoiding partisan debate in favor of a        methodologically careful, pluralistic approach. Rings also engages neo-Riemannian        theory-a popular branch of transformational thought focused on chromatic        harmony-reanimating its basic operations with tonal dynamism and bringing them into        closer rapprochement with traditional tonal concepts.Written in a direct and        engaging style, with lively prose and plain-English descriptions of all technical        ideas, Tonality and Transformation balances theoretical substance with        accessibility: it will appeal to both specialists and non-specialists. It is a        particularly attractive volume for those new to transformational theory: in addition        to its original theoretical content, the book offers an excellent introduction to        transformational thought, including a chapter that outlines the theory's conceptual        foundations and formal apparatus, as well as a glossary of common technical terms. A        contribution to our understanding of tonal phenomenology and a landmark in the        analytical application of transformational techniques, Tonality and Transformation        is an indispensible work of music theory.
