Rhythmic and Contrapuntal Structures in the Music of Arthur Honegger

Keith Waters, University of Colorado at Boulder
£50.00 reduced to £47.50 post free

Through analysis of a number of Honegger’s compositions, including extended analyses of two of Honegger’s orchestral works, Mouvement symphonique No. 2 (Rugby) and Symphonie pour cordes, Keith Waters examines the principles of musical organization in Honegger’s music and shows how these principles are based on systematic rhythmic and contrapunral strategies. Musical form in Honegger’s work. the book argues, is articulated by contrapuntal and rhythmic structures rather than by tonal structure, and it is this that provides the source of compositional unity in Honegger’s music.

Contents: Preface; Background; Rhythmic structures; Contrapuntal structures and symmetries; Mouvement symphonique (Rugby); Symphonie pour cordes; Problems of pitch analysis: centricity and tonality; Bibliography; Index.
