Description

Explore the rhythmic complexities of one of the most important composers in classical music history. Fantasy Pieces: Metrical Dissonance in the Music of Robert Schumann provides a deep look into the metrical conflict that defines Schumann's unique sound. Written by Harald Krebs, this study uses the composer's own personas, Florestan and Eusebius, to bridge the gap between biographical context and musical theory. This book offers a new way to understand musical structure by applying the concepts of consonance and dissonance to metrical analysis. Readers will learn how metrical dissonance arises within his compositions, offering a fresh perspective on his aesthetic and musical identity. Whether you are a musicologist, a student of classical music, or a dedicated scholar, this text provides a rigorous and imaginative framework for analyzing Schumann's work through a biographical and theoretical lens.
