A Clear and Welcome book about Classical music forms.By karengershThis book is a welcome explanation of music in the Classical period. The examples are clear without being overly explanatory. The list of selections are given as true representations of the period and their purpose in music history. A good companion to Sonata Forms by Charles Rosen.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Five StarsBy pedalfaceMind blowing and concise!
