Opis
| Izvleček: | "This comprehensive collection of 229 outstanding teaching pieces illustrates every significant trend and genre of Western music from antiquity to modern times. Each is considered from multiple perspectives - as an example of a style, a composer's output, in relation to other pieces, or as an illustration of a particular technique. Commentaries by Peter Burkholder offer insights and explanations alongside texts and translations, as well as embedded questions to help readers engage with the score more critically. The Eighth Edition offers thirty-six new or expanded selections, from new examples of medieval chant to twenty-first-century works such as Caroline Shaw's Pulitzer Prize-winning "Partita for 8 Voices" and "Concentric Paths", a violin concerto by Thomas Adès. French music has been added in several centuries, and examples from Spain and Latin America now appear in every century from the fifteenth to the twenty-first."--Back cover.

| Opis knjige/članka: | "The Norton Anthology of Western Music (NAWM) is a companion to A History of Western Music, Tenth Edition (HWM). It is also designed to stand by itself as a collection representing the most significant traditions, trends, genres, national schools, innovations, and historical developments in the history of music in Europe and the Americas. The editions of the scores are the best available for which permission could be secured ... Each selection is followed by a detailed commentary, separate from the discussion of the piece in HWM, that describes the piece's origins, explains its historical context and social functions, points out its important features and stylistic traits, and addresses issues of performance practice, including any unusual aspects of notation."--adapted from Making Connections : How to Use This Anthology, page xi.
