Opis

This collection of seventeen essays by friends, colleagues, and former students celebrates the extraordinarily broad intellectual reach of Eugene Narmour, Edmund J. Kahn Distinguished Professor Emeritus of Music at the University of Pennsylvania, a seminal figure in the field of music theory, and a path breaking scholar in music cognition. The studies range widely in subject and approach, just as Narmour's work demonstrates impressive mastery in an imposing array of disciplines, including, beyond his own training in music theory, art history, cognitive studies, linguistics, and psychology. Fittingly, therefore, these essays draw upon cognitive, historical, performative, philosophical, style-analytical, and theoretical models. The contributors include: Lawrence Bernstein, James Buhler, Matthew Butterfield, Catherine Chamblee, Alfred Cramer, Zohar Eitan, Robert Gjerdingen, Christopher Hasty, Robert Hopkins, Cristle Judd, Fred Lerdahl, Justin London, Eugene Montague, Caroline Palmer and Janeen Loehr, Alexander Rozin, Ruth Solie, and Gary Tomlinson.
