Leo Theitler is a central figure in American musicology, both for
his writings on medieval and Renaissance music and for his
influential work on historical analysis. In this elegant book he
develops a powerful statement of what music analysis and criticism
in relation to historical understanding can be. His aim is an
understanding of the music of the past not only in its own
historical context but also as we apprehend it now, and as we
assimilate it to our current interests and concerns. He elucidates
his views through unique new interpretations of major works from
the fifteenth through the twentieth centuries.
