Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the theory of rhythm in modern composition, tracing its roots in ancient Greek doctrine. The author, having observed that musical analyses of Bach and Beethoven often rely on mere conjecture, sought to establish a reliable understanding of rhythm based on the teachings of Aristoxenus, a prominent Greek theorist of the 4th century BCE. The book argues that a thorough comprehension of rhythmic structure in classical compositions necessitates a study of Aristoxenus's work, as a means of grasping the principles common to all musical compositions. The author presents a detailed analysis of rhythm, encompassing the division of phrases, periods, strophes, and other elements, demonstrating how these principles manifest in the works of Bach and Beethoven.
