Wordless Rhetoric: Musical Form and the Metaphor of the Oration by Mark Evan Bonds screenshot
English | Publisher: Harvard University Press, 1991 | 249 Pages | PDF | 7 MB
Although "form" is one of the most commonly used terms in music interpretation, it remains one of the most ambiguous. This study explores evolving ideas of musical form from a historical perspective and sheds light on current conceptualizations of music. Evan Bonds examines the image - dominant among 18th-century composers and analysts - of music as a language, a kind of wordless discourse, which could move audiences.

Aesthetics and the Art of Musical Composition in the German Enlightenment: Selected Writings of Johann Georg Sulzer and Heinrich Christoph Koch screenshot
English | Publisher: Cambridge University Press, 1995 | PDF | 223 pages | 6 MB
Can an abstract theory of Empfindsamkeit aesthetics have any value to a musician wishing to study composition in the classical style? The eighteenth-century German theorist and pedagogue Heinrich Koch showed how this question could be answered with a resounding yes. Starting with the systematic aesthetic theory of the Swiss encyclopedist Johann Sulzer, Koch was creatively able to adapt Sulzer's conservative ideas on ethical mimesis and rhetoric to concrete problems of music analysis and composition.

The Graph Music of Morton Feldman by David Cline screenshot
English | 2016 | ISBN: 110710923X | 405 Pages | PDF | 17.5 MB
Morton Feldman is widely regarded as one of America's greatest composers. His music is famously idiosyncratic, but, in many cases, the way he presented it is also unusual because, in the 1950s and 1960s, he often composed in non-standard musical notations, including a groundbreaking variety on graph paper that facilitated deliberately imprecise specifications of pitch and, at times, other musical parameters. Feldman used this notation, intermittently, over seventeen years, producing numerous graph works that invite analysis as an evolving series.

The Power and Value of Music: Its Effect and Ethos in Classical Authors and Contemporary Music Theory screenshot
English | 2016 | ISBN: 1433133784 | 639 Pages | PDF | 3.47 MB
Nobody doubts that music has a special, somewhat mysterious power. Less clear is how we can evaluate that power. What makes music good or bad? Are there objective criteria for such a distinction? What impact can or should music have on individuals and on society as a whole? What are the factors responsible for the effect of music? This book summarizes and discusses how authors of classical antiquity addressed these questions on musical «ethos» and how they can be approached from a modern-day perspective.

Composing Ambiguity: The Early Music of Morton Feldman by Alistair Noble screenshot
English | Publisher: Ashgate, 2013 | 228 pages | PDF | 3 MB
American composer Morton Feldman is increasingly seen to have been one of the key figures in late-twentieth-century music, with his work exerting a powerful influence into the twenty-first century. At the same time, much about his music remains enigmatic, largely due to long-standing myths about supposedly intuitive or aleatoric working practices. In Composing Ambiguity, Alistair Noble reveals key aspects of Feldman's musical language as it developed during a crucial period in the early 1950s.

Elektronische Musik aus Düsseldorf by Rüdiger Esch screenshot
2014 | ISBN: 3518464647 | German | 459 pages | EPUB | 7 MB
So wie New Orleans für Jazz und Blues gilt das Düsseldorf der 1970er und 80er als Mekka der elektronischen Popmusik. Hier schraubte »Kraftwerk« im legendären Klingklang-Studio an Klassikern wie »Autobahn« oder »Wir sind die Roboter«, hier schuf »Neu!« den Motorik Beat, hier brachte »DAF« den Sequenzern das Schwitzen bei. Und je größer der Abstand, nach Kilometern wie nach Jahren, umso mythischer erscheint der Ort.

Bach's Numbers: Compositional Proportion and Significance by Ruth Tatlow screenshot
English | 2015 | ISBN: 1107459699 | 430 Pages | PDF | 6.7 MB
In eighteenth-century Germany the universal harmony of God's creation and the perfection of its proportions still held philosophical, moral and devotional significance. Reproducing proportions close to the unity (1:1) across compositions could render them beautiful, perfect and even eternal. Using the principles of her groundbreaking theory of proportional parallelism and the latest source study research, Ruth Tatlow reveals how Bach used the number of bars to create numerical perfection across his published collections, and explains why he did so.

Mathematics and Music: Composition, Perception, and Performance by James S. Walker and Gary W. Don screenshot
English | Publisher: CRC PRess, 2013 | 334 pages | PDF | 13,5 MB
At first glance, mathematics and music seem to be from separate worlds―one from science, one from art. But in fact, the connections between the two go back thousands of years, such as Pythagoras’s ideas about how to quantify changes of pitch for musical tones (musical intervals). Mathematics and Music: Composition, Perception, and Performance explores the many links between mathematics and different genres of music, deepening students’ understanding of music through mathematics.
