  • More about Music Analysis in Britain in the Nineteenth and Early Twentieth Centuries

The book challenges the notion that the 19th century in Britain was devoid of music and analysis, highlighting scientific and pedagogical methods and concert programme notes from the period. It also explores the derivation of Tovey's methods from these earlier practices.

Format: Hardback
Publication date: 01 January 2021
Publisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd

This title was first published in 2003. The Britain of the 19th century has often been regarded as a "land without music" and without "music analysis" also. This book disproves this notion by reference to the rigorous scientific analytical methods of Williams, Evans and Prout, the pedagogical methods of Hullah, Glover and Curwen and the analytical concert programme notes of Davison, Bennett and Grove. It concludes with a consideration of Tovey, the "grand old man of British analytical history" and attempts to show the derivation of his methods from these earlier 19th-century practices.
