Questioning Schenkerism

By Bengt Edlund

The book offers a criticism of Schenkerian theory and analytic practice. Contrary to what is held, is it really valuable when it comes to musical description and interpretation? What about its relationships to other kinds of analysis, and to linguistic syntax and music cognition?
