Harmony Theory

Harmony Theory Synopsis

Presenting detailed bibliographic information on all aspects of harmony in music, with the broadest possible historical and stylistic palette, this work includes over 2,600 total citations. The sources range from treatises, dissertations, and textbooks to journal articles and book reviews, and are cross-referenced and indexed. This is the most complete bibliographic reference guide of its kind on harmony. Including harmony-related materials from the Baroque period through the present day, the work contains chapters devoted to book-length treatises and their related citations, a general bibliography comprised mostly of journal articles, and an index. Of interest to music theory instructors, undergraduate and graduate students of music theory, and researchers, this is the second in a series of music theory reference books; the first, Orchestration Theory: A Bibliography, was published by Greenwood Press in 1996. This work contains chapters devoted to book-length treatises and their related citations, a general bibliography containing mostly journal articles, and an index, and includes harmony-related materials from the Baroque period through the present day.
