The Influence of the Organ in History / Inaugural Lecture of the Department of the Organ in the College of Music of Boston University

by Dudley Buck

Of the CHAMBER AND ORCHESTRAL music, a minute analysis reaching to the rhythmical significance of each bar is given.

The analytical accounts of the PIANO works are each subdivided under the headings: Key; Time and Extent; Thematic Material; Melody; Harmony; Rhythm; etc.

The CHORAL works are dealt with in the fullest detail, and original English translations have been made to most of the SONGS.

Each volume is a self-contained unit and a complete textbook on its particular subject.
