One of the most exciting chapters in music history is the turn of the 20th century: Different styles develop in parallel, influence and criticize each other, until finally each composer himself invents the “keynote” for his music (Wolfgang Rihm).
Christoph Wünsch explains the central compositional techniques using over 300 music examples. The book opens up such diverse approaches and conveys the tools for one’s own analysis, research and composition.

Keywords: Analysis, compositional techniques, 20th century
