Mode in Javanese Music, 79: MIS Sea#79
ISBN: 9780896801448 / Angielski / Miękka / 278 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. One of the most controversial aspects of Javanese gamelan music is its musical mode, "pathet." From her experience as a performer of "sindhenan," or female singing, Walton analyses the melodies and defines the basic laws of mode for "sindhenan." She explains more convincingly than previous authors how two systems of mode operate simultaneously in gamelan music to enhance its aesthetic appeal.

Music and the Aesthetics of Modernity: Essays
ISBN: 9780964031722 / Angielski / Twarda / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. For most music historians, the modernism of the twentieth century was until recently the only appearance of the "modern" in music. The widely perceived recent decline of musical modernism makes it now possible to see the modernism of the twentieth century as a chapter in a much longer story, the story of musical modernity. The principal purpose of the present book is to encourage a debate over musical modernity; a debate that would consider the question whether, and to what extent, an examination of the history of European art music may enrich our picture of modernity and whether our...

Contrapuntal Harmony for Beginners
ISBN: 9781406793888 / Angielski / Miękka / 104 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This vintage book contains a comprehensive guide to contrapuntal motion. In music theory, contrapuntal motion is the movement of two melodic lines in relation to each other. In standard four-part harmony, it is imperative that the lines remain independent - a result that can be maintained through the use of the four types of contrapuntal motion: similar motion, contrary motion, parallel motion, and oblique motion. Written in clear, plain language and full of interesting and useful information, this text is ideal for those with little previous musical knowledge, and will be of considerable...

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...
