ISBN: 9780130143310.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA primer--rather than a survey--this book offers exceptionally clear, simple explanations of basic theoretical concepts for the post-tonal music of the twentieth century. Emphasizing hands-on contact with the music--through playing, singing, listening, and analyzing--it provides six chapters on theory, each illustrated with musical examples and fully worked-out analyses, all drawn largely from the \"classical\" pre-war repertoire by Schoenberg, Stravinsky, Bartok, Berg, and Webern. Considers three principal kinds of post-tonal music--free atonal music, twelve-tone music, and centric music. Makes extensive use of transformational graphs and networks to present analytical information; and includes a variety of exercises in theory, analysis, musicianship and ear-training, and composition. For anyone interested in Twentieth-Century Music Techniques and Post-Tonal Theory and Analysis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"PEARSON EDUCATION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45253698027573,"sku":"ByrdShop_0130143316","price":118.86,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780130143310_57fcb242-1c78-44d2-9d1e-640232eac769.jpg?v=1779946233","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/introduction-to-posttonal-theory-2nd-edition-9780130143310","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
