Innehåller verkförteckning
An authoritative and readily understandable study of the core compositional style of the eighteenth century. Gjerdingen adopts an approach based on a massive but little-known corpus of pedagogical workbooks used by the most influential teachers of the century, the Italian partimenti. He has brought this vital repository of compositional methods into confrontation with a set of schemata distilled from an enormous body of eighteenth-century music, much of it known only to specialists, formative of the galant style.
