Harmony in Beethoven

Harmony in Beethoven

David Damschroder's ongoing reformulation of harmonic theory continues with a dynamic exploration of how Beethoven molded and arranged chords to convey bold conceptions. This book's introductory chapters are organized in the manner of a nineteenth-century Harmonielehre, with individual considerations of the tonal system's key features illustrated by easy-to-comprehend block-chord examples derived from Beethoven's piano sonatas. In the masterworks section that follows, Damschroder presents detailed analyses of movements from the symphonies, piano and violin sonatas, and string quartets, and compares his outcomes with those of other analysts, including William E. Caplin, Robert Gauldin, Nicholas Marston, William J. Mitchell, Frank Samarotto, and Janet Schmalfeldt. Expanding upon analytical practices from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries and strongly influenced by Schenkerian principles, this fresh perspective offers a stark contrast to conventional harmonic analysis – both in terms of how Roman numerals are deployed and how musical processes are described in words.

At last a vast amount of recent scholarship, pertaining to four centuries of theoretical developments including the Baroque, Classical, and Romantic periods, has been organized systematically in a single volume. In the Dictionary of Theorists, the major section of the volume, individual entries devoted to approximately 250 theorists supply all of the bibliographic information most scholars are likely to require: titles and publication data for each author's treatises and principal articles, as well as titles and locations of manuscripts; lists of translations, facsimile editions, and microfilm copies of each work; a bibliography of articles, books, dissertations, and encyclopedia entries per...

Listen and Sing

"Listen and sing is an integrated program in ear-training and sight-singing that effectively relates these basic skills to the underlying structure of mnusic. Designed to support a two-year sequence in ear-training and sight-singing, this text covers all aspects of elementary tonal music theory, including intervals, chords and their inversions, sequences, modulation, and rhythm/meter. A variety of exercises challenge the student to make practical use of each new concept as it is introduced. Each chapter includes solo melodies, duets, and accompanied solo melodies for singing: workshops in rhythm, intervals, and arpeggiation: multiple-choice identifications: and rhythmic, melodic, and harmonic dictations"--Back cover
