"I really like this book's brief examples, the brevity of the chapters, and the variety of genres." --Leslie M. Sabina, St. Bonaventure University

"For those of us who choose not to use a standard tonal harmony textbook in our courses, Music for Analysis, Eighth Edition, provides organized musical examples in a single source." --Susan Piagentini, Bienen School of Music, Northwestern University

Offering 477 pieces of music from the Baroque period to the present, Music for Analysis, Eighth Edition, is the most comprehensive anthology of its kind. The book is organized by music theory concept, so it can easily be linked to any introductory theory course. The authors do not prescribe any system of analysis, allowing individual instructors to follow their own preferences with their students. Ample room for student work eliminates the need for a separate workbook or to purchase score paper.
