	Musical analysis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It may be that the analyst is concerned merely with applying a collection of rules concerning practice, or with the description of the compositional process.
		The greatest analysts are those with the keenest ears; their insights reveal how a piece of music should be heard, which in turn implies how it should be played.
		Musicologists associated with the new musicology often use musical analysis (traditional or not) along with or to support their examinations of the performance practice and social situations in which music is produced and which produce music, and vice versus.

	Stephen Davies - Themes in the Philosophy of Music - Reviewed by Garry L. Hagberg, Bard College - Philosophical Reviews ...
		The fact that music is not a semantic system the coherence of which is ordered by syntactic rules should not blind us to the fact that there is such a thing as melodic coherence as an (perhaps rough, but potentially nevertheless illuminating) analogy to the much-discussed unity of the proposition.
		Thus writing on the problem of the authentic musical performance, he rightly says that ideal authentic performances "faithfully preserve the composer's determinative intentions", and what he says next rightly undercuts the falsifying intentionalist template: "and because those intentions underdetermine the sound of a faithful performance, different-sounding performances may be equally and ideally authentic" (p.
		This nexus of corporeal embodiment, action, and expression is melded indissolubly with the music that is sounded, which in its turn implicates the human body and organic processes through the ebb and flow of its pulse and rhythm, of its gestures and sighs, of its tensions and resolutions" (p.

	CHAPTER 9 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		Music analysis aimed at purposes other than litigation seeks the same information: how music is heard; what materials form the basis of the composer's ideas; how the music is constructed; and what styles, idioms, and other influences place the music in historical perspective and help to explain the composer's original contribution.
		Radical simplifications of music might be warranted if the trier of fact were being asked to learn and retain something about music theory, but the goal of the expert is to inform listening, not to explain theory and analysis.
		Music scholars need to counteract popular influences and assert their knowledge more confidently in a wider social arena.

	The Project Gutenberg eBook of How To Listen To Music, by Henry Edward Krehbiel.
		Musical study of a sort being almost as general as study of the "three Rs," it must be said that the gross forms of ignorance are utterly inexcusable.
		The beauty and expressiveness, especially the emotionality, of a musical composition depend upon the harmonies which either accompany the melody in the form of chords (a group of melodic intervals sounded simultaneously), or are latent in the melody itself (harmonic intervals sounded successively).
		Vocal music tolerates more of the descriptive element than instrumental because it is a mixed art; in it the purpose of music is to illustrate the poetry and, by intensifying the appeal to the fancy, to warm the emotions.

		His musical originality is incontestable, and he marries words and music with a genius attainable by only the greatest composers.
		Everyone will have a different take on the dichotomy that those two souls are supposed to represent: intellect and passion, words and music, straight and gay, happy and sad, even glamour and corruption in America itself-it all depends on the angle of the analyst.
		Sondheim's musical originality is incontestable, both as a stretching of Broadway formulas and as part of the larger tendency late in this century to pull back from dissonant excess while retaining a sharp, modernist edge.

		By describing music in the way that he does, Rushdie preserves for us something of its anarchy, paradox and spirituality, qualities which we feel are essential in music, but which are outside of the remit of the university analyst, whose approach tends to be reductive and atomising.
		There are all sorts of pushes and pulls in the rhythm of the music, but because the notion of the beat behind the music is shared in common between all of the players, it won’t stray too far away from the main pulse, the heartbeat of the music.

	Babbitt, A Life of Learning (ACLS Occasional Paper No. 17)
		This chronological disjunction between the music with which Schenker analysis was concerned, and the music (and soon, the musics) of post-1909 Schoenberg and others to follow did not conceal Schenker and Schoenberg’s cultural affinities.
		Musical structure, necessarily, is in the musical memory of the beholder.
		What the learned composer had to learn, and still is learning as he creates music from sonic and temporal scratch, are the limits of the new musical boundaries, the intricate abilities of the human auditor with respect to the perception and conceptualization of every musical dimension and their compounds.

	MTO 8.4: Holm-Hudson, Your Guitar, It Sounds So Sweet and Clear: Semiosis in Two Versions of "Superstar"
		Therefore, in musical terms, it can be argued that when an instrument has a rest in an arrangement--or has been mixed out in the final arrangement--it doesn't necessarily mean that the instrument is "not there." "Your guitar, it sounds so sweet and clear," Karen Carpenter sings.
		If a musical element is recognized as identical or similar to one found in the store of intonations present in the listener, that element is maintained more easily in the memory and thus strongly influences the conception of the work on the basis of the paradigm of memory.
		Nevertheless, his discussion of the tripartite musical model is useful, regardless of approach, for helping the musical analyst get out of the analyst's "comfort zone" by considering all aspects of the musical fact.
