Written by ten leading scholars, this 2008 volume assembles studies
of eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century music under the broad
rubric of communication. That such an impulse motivates musical
composition and performance in this period of European musical
history is often acknowledged but seldom examined in depth. The
book explores a broad set of issues, ranging from the exigencies of
the market for books and music in the eighteenth century through to
the deployment of dance topoi in musical composition. A number of
close readings of individual works by Mozart, Haydn and Beethoven
draw on a sophisticated body of historically-appropriate technical
resources to illuminate theories of form, metre, bass lines and
dance topoi. Students and scholars of music history, theory and
analysis will find in this volume a set of challenging,
state-of-the-art essays that will stimulate debate about musical
meaning and engender further study.
