Music in the Galant Style
Music in the Galant Style

Robert O. Gjerdingen (author)

Discipline: Other

Category: Other

This book promises to reframe nearly all the work that scholars have lavished on compositional practice in the eighteenth century by answering a question that no one seems to have asked before – now – how were 19th composers able to produce such massive quantities of music in such a broad spectrum of genres, and to do so with both facility and taste.

Keywords: galant style, music theory
