Form vs. Work: A Major Antinomy of Music Theory and Analysis

Khannanov, Ildar D.

The antinomy of musical work and musical form has been central for music theory for centuries. Musical work is complete and all-inclusive, which makes it an ideal object of study. However, the teaching of musical form, albeit selective, is self-sufficient and epistemologically sovereign. The book offers both the historical overview and the analytical discourse on this antinomy in both Western and Russian perspectives. It presents an insider’s view of the latter and contains materials never previously published.
