Recenzje

Matthew Gelbart assimilates a broad range of genre theory and adds his own nuances spurred on by the specifics of the Romantic music that forms the basis of the study. As such, he highlights how genre is one the ties that binds Western art music of the 19th century to contemporary popular music as well as to other types of music. Musical Genre and Romantic Ideology is impeccably researched and a pleasure to read.
