Description

Sonata form is fundamentally a dramatic structure that creates, manipulates, and ultimately satisfies expectation through invitation of prediction, association, and interpretation. This Routledge book presents nine distinct studies whose central focus is sonata form, demonstrating the manifold analytical approaches to which the form responds and the vast range of musical possibility within it. For nearly 200 years, sonata form served as the chief vehicle of dramatic instrumental music, a role earned through its power, universality, and remarkable tonal and stylistic adaptability. Ideal for music scholars, students, and practitioners seeking to understand the structural and expressive foundations of classical and contemporary instrumental composition.

Key Features

Nine comprehensive studies examining sonata form from different analytical perspectives and musical traditions.

Explores how sonata form creates dramatic tension through expectation, prediction, and resolution across instrumental music.

Published by Routledge, a leading academic publisher specialising in music theory and musicology texts.

Addresses the tonal and stylistic adaptability that made sonata form the dominant structure in instrumental music for nearly two centuries.

Demonstrates the vast range of musical possibilities available within sonata form's fundamental dramatic framework.
