Music Theory in Concept and Practice

Eastman Studies in Music

by James M. Baker

Three principal areas of study are represented in this collection. One is historical research, which includes efforts to trace the development of theoretical ideas and their philosophical bases; the second area embraces the theory and analysis of common-practice tonality and its associated repertoire (including chromatic and transitional music); the third broad category includes the large body of work associated with theory and analysis of post-tonal music.
