David Lewin's Morgengruss
David Lewin (1933-2003) was one of the most influential and revered figures in contemporary music theory. This book presents in print for the first time Lewin's legendary 1974 essay on Franz Schubert's "Morgengruß." Supplemented by new essays from an all-star group of music theorists, David Lewin's Morgengruß offers invaluable insight into the analytical, pedagogical, and philosophical contexts of Lewin's work.
Generalized Musical Intervals and Transformations
David Lewin's Generalized Musical Intervals and Transformations is recognized as the seminal work paving the way for current studies in mathematical and systematic approaches to music analysis. Lewin, one of the 20th century's most prominent figures in music theory, pushes the boundaries of the study of pitch-structure beyond its conception as a static system for classifying and inter-relating chords and sets. Known by most music theorists as "GMIT", the book is by far the most significant contribution to the field of systematic music theory in the last half-century, generating the framework for the "transformational theory" movement. Appearing almost twenty years after GMIT's initial publication, this Oxford University Press edition features a previously unpublished preface by David Lewin, as well as a foreword by Edward Gollin contextualizing the work's significance for the current field of music theory.
Studies in Music with Text
Throughout his career, David Lewin labored to make even the most abstract theory speak to the experience of the ordinary listener. This book combines many of Lewin's classic articles on song and opera with newly drafted chapters on songs of Brahms, Robert Schumann, Clara Schumann, and Milton Babbitt. Bound together by Lewin's cogent insight, the resulting collection constitutes a major statement concerning the methodological problems associated with interpretation of texted music.
