A Theory of Music Analysis: On Segmentation and Associative Organization (Eastman Studies in Music, 92)

Read Download
A new theory of musical analysis from an award-winning author, with six detailed analyses of works from Beethoven to today.

This book introduces a theory of music analysis that one can use to explore aspects of segmentation and associative organization in a wide range of repertoire including Western classical music from the Baroque to the present, withpotential applications to jazz and popular music, and some non-Western musics. Rather than a methodology, the theory provides analysts with precise language and a broad, flexible conceptual framework through which they can formulate and investigate questions of interest and develop their own interpretations of individual pieces and passages. The theory begins with a basic distinction among three domains of musical experience and discourse about the sonic ; the contextual ; and the structural . A comprehensive presentationof the theory, with copious musical illustrations, is balanced with close analyses of works by Beethoven, Debussy, Nancarrow, Riley, Feldman, and Morris.

Dora A. Hanninen is professor of music theory at the Universityof Maryland. She received the 2010 Outstanding Publication Award from the Society for Music Theory.
