Carl Schachter is the practitioner of the Schenkerian approach to the music of the 18th and 19th centuries. This volume gathers some of his essays, including those on rhythm in tonal music, Schenkerian theory, and text setting, as well as a pair of analytical monographs.

Carl Schachter is, by common consent, one of the three or four most important music theorists currently at work in North America. He is the preeminent practitioner in the world of the Schenkerian approach to the music of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, which focuses on the linear organization of music and now dominates discussions of the standard repertoire in university courses and in professional journals. His articles have appeared in a variety of journals, including some that are obscure or hard to obtain. This volume gathers some of his finest essays, including those on rhythm in tonal music, Schenkerian theory, and text setting, as well as a pair of analytical monographs, on Bach''s Fugue in B-flat major from Volume 1 of the Well-Tempered Clavier and Chopin''s Fantasy, Op. 49.
