A well-written textbook by a learned musician practicing his craft. The analyses are clearly argued, and Wen projects a reassuring sense of authenticity in his approach to tonal music analysis. The book will be of interest to many musicians, especially those focused on Schenkerian theory and analysis. I believe the book will be a welcome addition to the range of teaching manuals on the subject. ? Music Theory OnlineMusic theorist Eric Wen presents in-depth analyses of seven masterworks from the common-practice period of Western art music: Bach: Air from Orchestral Suite No. 3 in D, BWV 1068 Mendelssohn: Andante con moto tranquillo from Piano Trio No. 1 in D minor, Op. 49 Schubert: Nacht und Traüme, D. 827 Haydn: Adagio ? Vivace assai from Symphony No. 94 in G, Hob. I:94 Mozart: Molto Allegro from Symphony No. 40 in G minor, K. 550 Beethoven: Marcia funebre: Adagio assai from Symphony No. 3 in E-flat, Op. 55 Brahms: Un poco presto e con sentimento from Violin Sonata No. 3 in D minor, Op. 108 Wen employs the analytic approach developed by Heinrich Schenker, a method that uses musical notation to clarify and illuminate a work's structural hierarchies. Copiously illustrated with analytic musical examples that elucidate the tonal organization of each of the seven works, this study also explores aspects of form, rhythmic organization, and programmatic meaning. This volume will be of particular interest to musicologists and professional musicians, and it will also appeal to listeners keen to probe the rich complexities of these masterpieces.

Mesures composées-?tude du Rythme is an educational tool proposed by Georges Dandelot (1895-1975) a French composer agreeing with the concept that rhythm is the foundation on which melody and harmony are then layered. It was conceived to progressively teach musicians how to deal with complicated rhythms such as those used by Bartok or Ravel. This volume is the second of five composing a step-by-step method to learn and master rhythm in music. It introduces more complexity with simple exercises and melodies. The third one should help pianists to play different rhythms with each hand and the volumes four and five use complex combinations of rhythms and melody withbinary and tertiary tempos.

The Martin is considered the finest acoustic guitar in the world a distinction it has held for more that 160 years. Martin guitars have been played by performers Eric Clapton Stephen Stills Judy Collins and Johnny Cash as well as hundreds of thousands of other professional and amateur musicians. In C.F. Martin and His Guitars 1796-1873 Philip Gura chronicles the career of Christian Frederick Martin from his humble start as an importer and repairman of musical instruments in New York City in the 1830s through his move to Nazareth Pennsylvania and the founding of C.F. Martin & Company. Gura is the first historian to thoroughly studythe Martin company records dating back to the 1830s: Letters account books inventories and other documents. Using this rich archive Gura establishes how a German immigrant from Saxony's guild tradition became the finest American guitar maker of his time and created a uniquely American business that successfully eclipsed its competition. As Gura shows Martin's success was based on his successful navigation of the rapid economic expansion and industrialization of his time. The many sketches and hundreds of photographs illustrate how Martin adapted his artisanal craft to modern industrial methods maintaining quality while meeting increased demand for instruments. Gura traces the network of suppliers who provided Martin with his raw materials and explores the advertising and other methods Martin employed to build a market for his goods. After Martin's death in 1873 the company continued to grow. It thrives today under the leadership of a sixth-generation Martin producing instruments that are still the most sought after and collectable in the world. Includes an 80-page color section!
