Form and analysis theory

by James E. Perone

"Form and Analysis Theory: A Bibliography is designed to present as complete bibliographic information as possible about all aspects of musical form and its analysis, with the broadest possible historical and stylistic palette. The book is divided into four principal sections: (1) "Form and Anlysis Treatises (A-L)"; (2) "Form and Analysis Treatises (M-Z)"; (3) "General Bibliography"; and (4) "Index." Both "Form and Analysis Treatises" chapters include publication, original language, English translation, reprint, and bibliographic information for book-length works (including master's theses and doctoral dissertations) which deal with questions of musical form and musical analysis in a significant way. A few books which deal in a smaller and sometimes less complete way with form and analysis will not be found in this chapter, but can be located in the "General Bibliography."--Page vii.
