Heinrich Schenker: A Research and Information Guide (Routledge Music Bibliographies)

Description

My concepts present, for the first time, a genuine theory of tonal language-he was not overly humble but we might expect as much of the most important theorist of tonal music to write in the last century. Schenker's eloquence teaches us about what a good theory is, how art differs from science, and of course about the music itself. This bibliography and guide will be indispensable to anyone doing research on this remarkable teacher.
