Focusing on music written in the period 1800-1850, Thinking about
Harmony traces the responses of observant musicians to the music
that was being created in their midst by composers including
Beethoven, Schubert, and Chopin. It tells the story of how a
separate branch of musical activity - music analysis - evolved out
of the desire to make sense of the music, essential both to its
enlightened performance and to its appreciation. The book
integrates two distinct areas of musical inquiry - the history of
music theory and music analysis - and the various notions that
shape harmonic theory are put to the test through practical
application, creating a unique and intriguing synthesis. Aided by
an extensive compilation of carefully selected and clearly
annotated music examples, readers can explore a panoramic
projection of the era's analytical responses to harmony, thereby
developing a more intimate rapport with the period.
