This book investigates the spectrum of meaning inherent in six
orchestral works by Leos Janacek. It codifies his compositional
style, first through a thorough examination of its origins in folk
music and speech-melody, then in discussions of the features of its
melody and motivic techniques. His harmonic style and multiple
organizations of tonality are examined in rich detail. The analysis
section consists of the examination of each musical work's musical
elements, its affective and programmatic associations, as well as
four narrative codes through which the listener discovers further
meaning in the work: the hermeneutic code (which governs enigmas),
the semic code of musical motives, the proairetic (formal) code,
and the referential code (which draws on analogous passages from
other pieces of music).
