Reviews & endorsements
"Because of its comprehensive nature and the quality of its articles, this second installment of Schenker Studies is perhaps the best book now available for surveying the most recent trends in Schenkerian analysis, and it can be used for that purpose either in a classroom setting or by individual readers." Notes
