Reflections on musical meaning and its representations
About this book
In this collection of thoroughly revised essays and lectures, distinguished scholar Leo Treitler explores the relationships among language, musical notation, performance, compositional practice, and patterns of culture in the presentation and representation of music. Treitler engages a wide variety of historical sources to discuss works from medieval plainchant to Berg's opera Lulu and a range of music in between.--[book cover].
