Music Theory and Analysis in the Writings of Arnold Schoenberg (1874-1951)
Arnold Schoenberg's theory of music has been much discussed but his approach to music theory needs a new historical and theoretical assessment in order to provide a clearer understanding of his contributions to music theory and analysis. Norton Dudeque's achievement in this book involves the synthesis of Schoenberg's theoretical ideas from the whole of the composer's working life, including material only published well after his death. The book discusses Schoenberg's rejection of his German music theory heritage and past approaches to music-theory pedagogy, the need for looking at musical structures differently and to avoid aesthetic and stylistic issues. Dudeque provides a unique understand...

Elders on the Run
Elders on the Run is a light-hearted tale that speaks to both our human spirit, as well as our folly. By hinting at our human peculiarities, Elders on the Run strives to teach that through us, the universe speaks, that we have the opportunity to give voice to the cosmos, to tell its story, to be its imagination. Once described as similar to A Confederacy of Dunces, this story follows quirky characters and even quirkier adventures.Along the way, we watch the haphazard life of Norton and Chub, an odd duo who quickly find themselves in trouble. After their sentencing, Norton and Chub learn that they are in a nursing home unlike any other. Dave Spring's is federally funded, constantly guarded and surrounded by razor wire. Here, the residents don't feel like residents. No one chose to be here. Everyone is court ordered. They feel like prisoners, and in many respects, that's what they are.

Heitor Villa-Lobos’s Bachianas Brasileiras
Heitor Villa-Lobos’s Bachianas Brasileiras demonstrates how the composer achieved his own Brazilian neoclassical style in a group of works, nine suites in total, that is arguably one of the best examples of homage to J.S. Bach’s music in the twentieth century. In this book, the corpus of Bachianas Brasileiras is contextualized and critically examined according to its structure and intertextual aspects, as well as its relationship to Bach’s music, Brazilian popular music, and other works by contemporaries of Villa Lobos. A range of musical examples illustrate instances of the selected topics in the works, encompassing urban Brazilian popular music such as the choro, Brazilian northeast and afro rhythms, and citation of folkloric melodies. Dudeque’s comprehensive examination of the Bachianas Brasileiras will be invaluable for scholars and researchers of music theory and analysis.
