Publisher Description:
This vintage book contains a comprehensive treatise on the subject of music form, and includes information on sentencing and phrasing, modulation, rhythm, and much more. This detailed yet accessible text will appeal to those with an interest in improving their knowledge of music form, and will be of special interest to students. The chapters of this book include: 'Rhythm - Sentences and Phrases', 'The Subdivisions of a Musical Sentence', 'Sections and Motives', 'Modulation - Key - Relationship', 'The Means of Modulation - Modulation by Means of Triads', etcetera. Many antiquarian books such as this are increasingly hard to come by and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this book, now complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
