The purpose of the study is to introduce selected piano toccatas composed in the twentieth-century, and to explore the character and contrasting musical styles of these toccatas. Many composers of this century were interested in the toccata form. This often challenging genre has provided pianists with technically brilliant repertoire. This study is an attempt to observe the development and contrast of toccatas during each musical era: Renaissance, Baroque, Classical, Romantic, and Contemporary. Also, the selected toccatas are examined from the performer's perspective, e.g., each composer's musical idiom and construction. The first chapter states the definition of toccata and researches its origin. It covers how the toccata developed through the Baroque period and between the Classical and Romantic periods; it briefly describes composers' principal traits and new attempts toward the toccata. The next chapter discusses the revival of the toccata in the twentieth century, especially compositions by Claude Debussy, Maurice Ravel and Sergei Prokofiev. Along with distinct features of each toccata, it examines similarities and differences among three works. This is followed by selected twentieth century piano toccatas, focusing on a variety of compositional styles and musical ideas: contrapuntal writing, neo-classical, rag influence, and minimalism. This chapter includes compositions by Lee Hoiby, Robert Muczynski, Emma Lou Diemer, and George Rochberg, in chronological order. Also, as a performance guide, technical difficulty and suggested practice techniques are addressed. The conclusion briefly summarizes the most distinctive characteristic of toccatas covered in earlier chapters, and expresses the author's views about the value of the toccata in keyboard literature of the twentieth century.

A History of Twentieth-Century Music in a Theoretic-Analytical Context is an integrated account of the genres and concepts of twentieth-century art music, organized topically according to aesthetic, stylistic, technical, and geographic categories, and set within the larger political, social, economic, and cultural framework. While the organization is topical, it is historical within that framework. Musical issues interwoven with political, cultural, and social conditions have had a significant impact on the course of twentieth-century musical tendencies and styles. The goal of this book is to provide a theoretic-analytical basis that will appeal to those instructors who want to incorporate into student learning an analysis of the musical works that have reflected cultural influences on the major musical phenomena of the twentieth century. Focusing on the wide variety of theoretical issues spawned by twentieth-century music, A History of Twentieth-Century Music in a Theoretic-Analytical Context reflects the theoretical/analytical essence of musical structure and design.

The works of the 17th-century French harpsichord composers, the clavecinistes, are among the principal treasures of the harpsichord repertoire. It is a commmonplace of music histories that their style was strongly influenced by contemporary lutenists, yet the assessment of this influence has until now been limited to pointing out a few superficial resemblances. This book is the first comprehensive account of the relationship between the two styles. The nature and extent of the influence can now be seen as much more far-reaching than has been supposed. The clavecinistes adopted many details of lute style, and an understanding of these is essential for the proper performance of their works. More importantly, the lute style opened up the possibility of an entirely new expressive dimension in the playing of the harpsichord; in exploring this the clavecinistes evolved a style which dominated European keyboard music in the 17th-century, and provided a basis for the subsequent development of idiomatic keyboard style.

"A History of Baroque Music is a detailed treatment of the music of the Baroque era, with particular focus on the seventeenth century. The author's approach is a history of musical style with an emphasis on musical scores. The book is divided initially by time period into early and later Baroque (1600-1700 and 1700-1750 respectively), and secondarily by country and composer. An introductory chapter discusses stylistic continuity with the late Renaissance and examines the etymology of the term "Baroque." The concluding chapter on the composer Telemann addresses the stylistic shift that led to the end of the Baroque and the transition into the Classical period."--Jacket.

The 17th century was the century of the organ in much the same way the 19th century was the century of the piano. Almost without exception, the major composers of the century wrote for the instrument, and most of them were practicing organists themselves. This historical book surveys, analyzes, and discusses the major national styles of 17th century European organ music. Due to the extraordinarily extensive body of literature produced during this 100-year period, this text includes 350 musical examples to illustrate the various styles. The book also includes brief discussions of the various national styles of organ building, an appendix about the various notational methods used in the 17th century, and a chapter on Spain and Portugal written by Andre Lash, an expert on the subject.
