Heinrich Schenker: A Research and Information Guide is an annotated bibliography concerning both the nature of primary sources related to the composer and the scope and significance of the secondary sources which deal with him, his compositions, and his influence as a composer and theorist.

"My concepts present, for the first time, a genuine theory of tonal language"-he was not overly humble but we might expect as much of the most important theorist of tonal music to write in the last century. Schenker's eloquence teaches us about what a good theory is, how art differs from science, and of course about the music itself.
