Theories of Fugue from the Age of Josquin to the Age of Bach
ISBN: 9781580461504 / Angielski / Miękka / 504 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Few bodies of Western music are as widely respected, studied, and emulated as the fugues of Johann Sebastian Bach. Despite the esteem which Bach's contributions brought to the genre, however, the origin and early history of the fugue remain poorly understood. Theories of Fugue from the Age of Josquin to the Age of Bach addresses both the history and methodology of the pre-Bach fugue (from roughly 1500 to 1700), and, of greatest significance to the literature, it seeks to present a way out of the methodological dilemma of uncertainty which has plagued previous scholarly attempts by considering...

Explaining Tonality: Schenkerian Theory and Beyond
ISBN: 9781580461603 / Angielski / Twarda / 315 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A wide range of music -- from Bach to Mozart and Brahms -- is marked by its use of some form of what is generally called -tonality-: the tendency of music to focus melodically on some stable pitch or tonic and for its harmony to use functional triads. Yet few terms in music theory are more enigmatic than that seemingly simple word -tonality.- Matthew Brown's Explaining Tonality: Schenkerian Theory and Beyond considers a number of disparate ways in which functional tonality has been understood. In particular, it focuses on the comprehensive theory developed by Heinrich Schenker in his...

Time and the Warm Body: A Musical Perspective on the Construction of Time
ISBN: 9789004158702 / Angielski / Twarda / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This study deals with time and with music, and the link between the two is the suggestion that music is a modeling of the way we construct time. Time--the now, duration, succession and order of succession; the past, the future--is seen as a resource for managing systemic disequilibrium and as the evolutionary elaboration of the now. As organic dynamical systems humans maintain themselves by means of self-regulatory actions, nows, and these nows are proposed as feeding off a pre-temporal, interindividually accessed energy in nature, an ongoing cosmic proto-present. Speech is a way out of...
