Book Synopsis The Forms of Music by : Donald Francis Tovey
Download or read book The Forms of Music written by Donald Francis Tovey and published by Yoakum Press. This book was released on 2008-11 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Donald Francis Tovey Born in 1 875, Donald Francis Tovey was a British musicologist and composer. He took classical honors with his B. A. at Ox ford in 1898, and became a pianist of the first rank, though he never sought a virtuoso career. From 1914 to 1940 he was Reid Professor of Music at Edinburgh University. He died in 1 940. His other books include Normality and Freedom in Music, The Main Stream of Music, A Musician Talks, Essays in Musical Analysis, and Beethoven. ivx Meridian Books edition first published October 1956 First printing September 1956 Second printing June 1957 Third printing July 1958 Fourth printing April 1959 Fifth printing December 1959 Reprinted by arrangement with Oxford University Press Originally published 1944 as Musical Articles from the Encyclopaedia Britannica Library of Congress catalog card number 56-10015 Manufactured in the United States of America EDITORIAL PREFACE THE desire to set down upon paper a comprehensive system of musical education was present in the mind of Donald Tovey for the greater part of his life. In 1896, when he was 21, he wrote in a letter to a friend that he had begun a great work quot on the means of Expression in Music quot If ever I finish the thing, into print it shall go. Thirty years later, he was talking about a series of four text-books on music. But into print neither the one scheme nor the other went the final expression of his ideas on music was never written. It never could be written, because it was never final in the mind of that incessant discoverer in music. Nor was his method of writing that of finality. The nearest point to finality which Tovey ever reached in his expression of a formal philosophy in music is tobe found in the articles on technique and aesthetics of music as he called them himself in the list of his writings supplied to Who s Who which he contributed to the Encyclopaedia Britannica. Those articles, written from 1906 onwards for the eleventh edition of the Ency clopaedia, and revised again, almost rewritten, for the fourteenth edition in 1929, were necessarily cast in the imposed form of treatises under word-headings. Yet they coalesce very firmly into a clear and coherent testament, almost into a text-book of the art of music in its widest meaning. Like the Glossary to the Essays in Musical Analysis, the entries are unconnected, the whole comprehensive, and while not attempting completeness, afford the reader a wider range of musical thought and a fuller discussion of technical problems than most of the exhaustive and laborious theses now available. Tovey himself set great store by these articles. They formed for him the basis of his teaching at the University of Edinburgh. They are the background to those fuller considerations of musical compositions which are his Essays in Musical Analysis. It was his own proposal that these articles should be gathered together into one volume, an idea expressed to me as long ago as 1926. Means were then taken towards the end of publishing, and it was agreed that Tovey should in his own time make any alterations or correc tions necessary for the new method of presentation. But many other fresh and no doubt more important ideas and schemes came bubbling up into that wonderfully fertile brain, and nothing was done about the book of musical articles. I say more important because, though he was in life so fully occupied, it has now been foundpossible to publish these articles after the author s death. This book contains all the articles which Tovey wrote for the VI EDITORIAL PREFACE Encyclopaedia Britannica, as they now appear there, with the exception of one on Modern Music and the biographies. The book was set up from printed slips, and thus follows the text finally approved and corrected by the author. The very long musical examples are printed in full...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essentials of Music Theory Elementary Many pupils may not see the importance of some of the following text, such as the research for theoretical keys; but the results thus obtained are nothing more than the natural outcome of simple mathematical reasoning, and are inevi table if the structure of the scales is understood. Pupils should' be impressed with the structure of scales rather than be taught their keys and signatures by rote. Rote methods have little to recommend them in modern pedagogical ideals, and are used principally in teaching the young. The lack of knowledge of the whys and wherefores of scales, intervals, and chords among instrumentalists and singers is appalling, and is due partly to the neglect of text books and partly to incompetent teachers.

Book Synopsis The ABC of Musical Theory by : Ralph Dunstan
Download or read book The ABC of Musical Theory written by Ralph Dunstan and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-08 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The ABC of Musical Theory: With Numerous Original and Selected Questions and Exercises Tee following pages were primarily intended to provide a series of graduated questions and exercises covering, as far as possible, the whole field of what is commonly known as Musical Theory, or the Rudiments of Music and it was further intended that the work might be used in connection with any standard text-book. In dealing, however, with the more difficult parts of the subject, such as Syncopation, Trans position, the C clef in various positions, Determining the Key of given passages, and other similar questions which often puzzle the beginner, the author found that most of the text-books on Musical Theory gave less information than the ordinary student needed. It was therefore deemed advisable to include a concise summary of the essential Rudi ments of Music, which might serve either for instruction, for revision, or for reference. It is hoped that the teacher who may use this little work with his pupils will find his labours lightened, and that the questions and exercises are sufficiently varied and comprehensive to enable the student to understand the subject thoroughly, and to prepare for any of the usual examinations.

Book Synopsis On the Sensations of Tone, Vol. 8 by : Hermann L. F. Helmholtz
Download or read book On the Sensations of Tone, Vol. 8 written by Hermann L. F. Helmholtz and published by . This book was released on 2016-06-13 with total page 608 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "On the Sensations of Tone as a Physiological Basis for the Theory of Music" is a seminal work in the field of music theory. The book deals primarily with acoustics and the human perception of sound as the basis for all musical theory. The book is divided into three major parts, detailing the scientific composition of vibrations, the interruption of harmony, and the relationship of musical tones. This is a highly technical work that deals significantly with physiological responses to sounds. The book combines text, illustrations, charts, figures, and sheet music to illustrate its point and concludes with a detailed index, allowing this volume to serve as a reference document. Helmholtz's work in "On the Sensations of Tone as a Physiological Basis for the Theory of Music" is the stuff of genius. This text has been foundational for the further study of music theory, and is still considered a must-read text by many academics. "On the Sensations of Tone as a Physiological Basis for the Theory of Music" is one of the most important works ever written on the subject of tone and music theory. Hermann Helmholtz expertly combines his knowledge of both music and physiology to create a text that remains invaluable to this day. This book is thus highly recommended for the studious and educated musician seeking to improve their theoretical knowledge base.
