Hardcover. Zustand: Like New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. First Edition. Firm and square with strong joints, just showing a few very minor rubs and bumps. Hence a non-text page is stamped 'damaged'. Despite such this book is actually in nearly new condition. Thus it looks and feels unread with contents that are crisp, fresh and tight. Shows how Schoenberg's atonal music can be understood in terms of successions of pitch and rhythmic motives and pitch-class sets that flesh out the large frameworks of 'musical idea' and 'basic image'. It also explains how tonality, after losing its structural role in Schoenberg's music after 1908, begins to re-appear not long after as an occasional expressive device.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Jack Boss takes a unique approach to analyzing Arnold Schoenberg's twelve-tone music, adapting the composer's notion of a 'musical idea' - problem, elaboration, solution - as a framework and focusing on the large-scale coherence of the whole piece. The book begins by defining 'musical idea' as a large, overarching process involving conflict between musical elements or situations, elaboration of that conflict, and resolution, and examines how such conflicts often involve symmetrical pitch and interval shapes that are obscured in some way. Containing close analytical readings of a large number of Schoenberg's key twelve-tone works, including Moses und Aron, the Suite for Piano Op. 25, the Fourth Quartet, and the String Trio, the study provides the reader with a clearer understanding of this still-controversial, challenging, but vitally important modernist composer.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Award-winning author Jack Boss returns with the 'prequel' to Schoenberg's Twelve-Tone Music (Cambridge, 2014) demonstrating that the term 'atonal' is meaningful in describing Schoenberg's music from 1908 to 1921. This book shows how Schoenberg's atonal music can be understood in terms of successions of pitch and rhythmic motives and pitch-class sets that flesh out the large frameworks of 'musical idea' and 'basic image'. It also explains how tonality, after losing its structural role in Schoenberg's music after 1908, begins to re-appear not long after as an occasional expressive device. Like its predecessor, Schoenberg's Atonal Music contains close readings of representative works, including the Op. 11 and Op. 19 Piano Pieces, the Op. 15 George-Lieder, the monodrama Erwartung, and Pierrot lunaire. These analyses are illustrated by richly detailed musical examples, revealing the underlying logic of some of Schoenberg's most difficult pieces of music.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. First Edition. Wraps. 8vo. pp 48, 2 illus. Book starts - 'Have you been replaced yet?' A left wing, slightly alarmist look at the increasing use of technology in the workplace. Deals, among other things, with the implications of the use of computers - citing the Univac computer at General Electric. It talks of how an IBM 650 could become a 'weapon of terror in the wrong hands' --i.e. those of a totalitarian dictator. An interesting, early and scarce publication. Black graphically illustrated wraps lettered yellow. The work is a result of the co-operative 'research, thinking and writing' of the above authors, all at the time part of 'Socialist Society.' Very slight creasing otherwise vg+.
