A wide variety of essays by colleagues and former students reflect
Professor Strunk's particular role as music historian, teacher, and
a pre-eminent musicologist. Donald Grout provides the introduction
and outlines the problems confronting musicology today. Other
essays are devoted to early Christian music, Renaissance music,
early Italian opera; Arthur Mendel writes on ambiguities of the
munsural system, Edward Lowinsky on Willaert's "Chromatic Duo,"
Joseph Kerman on Verdi, and Elliot Forbes on Beethoven. Originally
published in 1958. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest
print-on-demand technology to again make available previously
out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton
University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of
these important books while presenting them in durable paperback
and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is
to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in
the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press
since its founding in 1905.
