A landmark collection of over 200 complete musical compositions and movements, ranging from the Middle Ages to the present, ANTHOLOGY FOR MUSICAL ANALYSIS, International Edition offers first- and second-year music theory students a wealth of illustrations of chords, voice-leading techniques, and forms, plus some material for figured-bass realization and score reading. Because this book takes no theoretical position, it is adaptable to any theoretical approach and to any type of curriculum, including those that combine theory study with music literature and the history of musical style.

Offering a large and varied body of music for study and adaptable to any theoretical approach, Charles Burkhart's collection contains more than 200 complete musical compositions, ranging in time from the Middle Ages to the present. Appropriate for various music theory courses, the book indexes many illustrations of chords, voice-leading techniques, and forms. Substantially revised and updated, this new edition features: An expanded twentieth-century section, including the works of Messiaen, Ligeti, Takemitsu, Reich, and Adams; greater representation of women composers - Hildegard of Bingen, Elisabeth Jacquet de la Guerre, Fanny Mendelssohn Hensel, Clara Schumann, and Amy Beach (with Ruth Crawford Seeger retained from the previous edition); significant new works, such as the dramatic chorus "Wretched Lovers" from Handel's Acis and Galatea, the first movement of Mozart's clarinet concerto; Beethoven's second "Rasumovsky" quartet, first movement; and an aria from John Adams' Nixon in China; added selections for wind ensembles, including several variations from Stravinsky's Octet for winds; and a dictionary of the foreign terms and expressions used in this book.

Structure and Style, first published in 1962 and expanded in 1979, fills the need for new ways of analysis that put 20th-century music in perspective. It spans forms in use before 1600 through forms and techniques in use today. Anthology of Musical Forms provides musical examples of forms treated in Structure and Style. Some examples are analyzed throughout. Most are left for the student to analyze. These books reflect Leon Stein's impressive background as student, musician, and composer. Stein studied composition with Leo Sowerby, Frederick Stock (conductor of the Chicago Symphony) and orchestration with Eric DeLamarter, his assistant. He earned M. Mus and Ph.D degrees at DePaul University and was associated with its School of Music as director of the Graduate Division and chairman of the Department of Theory and Composition until his retirement in 1976. He has composed a wide variety of works, including compositions for orchestra, chamber combinations, two operas, and a violin concerto.

This extremely practical introduction to musical analysis explores the factors that give unity and coherence to musical masterpieces. Having first identified and explained the most important analytical methods, Nicholas Cook examines given compositions from the last two hundred years to show how different analytical procedures suit different types of music.

Like many texts on musical analysis, FORMS IN TONAL MUSIC equips students to critically examine a wide range of compositions and forms. However, Green's text takes students a step further by enabling them to approach musical works unencumbered by preconceived notions of what characteristics the text should or should not have. Providing specific help on every aspect of musical analysis, this text uses many of the compositions found in Charles Burkhart's ANTHOLOGY FOR MUSICAL ANALYSIS, but it allows students the freedom to explore works that they already own.
