About This Item
Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1990. Hardcover. VG/VG (Ex-library with stamps and labels on spine, inside front and rear covers, ffep and block.). Black cloth boards with silver lettering; black dj with pink and blue lettering, mylar cover; ix, 207 pp; music. The author details the revisionary strategies of twentieth century composers--how they transformed the music of the tonal tradition in creating their radically new sonorities and structures. He defines a mainstream of musical modernism, a mainstream shaped by the aggressive reinterpretation of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century models. Includes bibliographical references (pages 187-204) and index.
