Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A CULTURAL HISTORY OF WESTERN MUSIC IN ANTIQUITY A Cultural History of Western Music in Antiquity covers the period from 850 BCE to 500 CE, a time when multiple musics grew and spread in a glorious polyphony of styles. Music became the beneficiary of a wide variety of practices, from large-scale public patronage to sophisticated theorization, from the design of new instruments to the medical enhancement of the voice, from the invention of new scales and rhythms to the creation of a remarkably precise notation system. Though much of this polymetric and microtonal music was later lost, the innovations of the ancient Greeks and Romans established new ways of conceiving and practicing music. The 6 volume set of the Cultural History of Western Music presents the first comprehensive history from classical antiquity to today, covering all forms and aspects of music and its ever-changing social context. The themes covered in each volume are society; philosophies; politics; exchange; education; popular culture; performance; and technologies. The Cultural Histories Series A Cultural History of Western Music is part of The Cultural Histories Series. Titles are available as hardcover sets for libraries needing just one subject or preferring a tangible reference for their shelves or as part of a fully-searchable digital library. The digital product is available to institutions by annual subscription or on perpetual access via www.bloomsburyculturalhistory.com .

Book excerpt: A CULTURAL HISTORY OF WESTERN MUSIC IN THE INDUSTRIAL AGE A Cultural History of Western Music in the Industrial Age covers the period from 1790 to 1920, when Western music became entangled with political, technological, and economic change on a global scale.

Besides its traditional aesthetic, ethical, and pedagogical functions, Western music became a force in an evolving landscape of work, leisure, and global economy, beating the drums of industrialization.

This book was released on 2006-04-20 with total page 1033 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cambridge History of Western Music Theory is the first comprehensive history of Western music theory to be published in the English language. A collaborative project by leading music theorists and historians, the volume traces the rich panorama of music-theoretical thought from the Ancient Greeks to the present day. Recognizing the variety and complexity of music theory as an historical subject, the volume has been organized within a flexible framework. Some chapters are defined chronologically within a restricted historical domain, whilst others are defined conceptually and span longer historical periods. Together the thirty-one chapters present a synthetic overview of the fascinating and complex subject that is historical music theory. Richly enhanced with illustrations, graphics, examples and cross-citations as well as being thoroughly indexed and supplemented by comprehensive bibliographies of the most important primary and secondary literature, this book will be an invaluable resource for students and scholars alike.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Oxford History of Western Music is a magisterial survey of the traditions of Western music by one of the most prominent and provocative musicologists of our time. This text illuminates, through a representative sampling of masterworks, those themes, styles, and currents that give shape and direction to each musical age. Taking a critical perspective, this text sets the details of music, the chronological sweep of figures, works, and musical ideas, within the larger context of world affairs and cultural history. Written by an authoritative, opinionated, and controversial figure in musicology, The Oxford History of Western Music provides a critical aesthetic position with respect to individual works, a context in which each composition may be evaluated and remembered. Taruskin combines an emphasis on structure and form with a discussion of relevant theoretical concepts in each age, to illustrate how the music itself works, and how contemporaries heard and understood it. It also describes how the c
