Music in the Galant Style Hardback
by Robert (Professor of Music, School of Music, Professor of Music, School of Music, Northw Gjerdingen
Hardback
Description
Music in the Galant Style is an authoritative and readily understandable study of the core compositional style of the eighteenth century.
Gjerdingen adopts a unique approach, based on a massive but little-known corpus of pedagogical workbooks used by the most influential teachers of the century, the Italian partimenti.
He has brought this vital repository of compositional methods into confrontation with a set of schemata distilled from an enormous body of eighteenth-century music, much of it known only to specialists, formative of the "galant style."
