Description - Studies in Medieval Music Theory and the Early Sequence by Richard L. Crocker

A collection of articles explaining two different aspects of medieval music. The studies address the fundamental problems relating to the history of ancient and medieval music theory, and search for the most appropriate technical concepts and tonal structures with which to hear and understand medieval music. The articles also reflect the author's study of manuscript materials and musical reperatory, style and form, and include "The Troping Hypothesis", a renowned musicological exercise in deconstruction. In all cases the volume investigates basic questions relating to the meaning in music and the writing of music.
