This book gives a critical account of various methods used in music
analysis. In the first chapter, a number of current approaches such
as semiotics, musical implications, Schenkerian analysis, and
generative theory are demonstrated on Mozart's K. 331 theme. Five
essays deal with important concepts in music analysis: ambiguity,
formal proportions, and similarity within and between works. A
further chapter provides a discussion of probability, kinship, and
influence - decisive criteria when judging musical plagiarism. The
last essay, studying a piece by Schubert, sifts the prospects of
deciphering a composer's sexual leanings from his music.
