Item description from seller

Language: English. About The Book: A Catechism of Musical History is a two-volume educational work that traces Western music’s development through a clear, question-and-answer format. Volume?I covers ancient and medieval music, the Renaissance, and early Baroque, highlighting key figures like Gregorian chant composers, Palestrina, Monteverdi, and early instrumental innovation. Volume?II explores the High Baroque through modern eras, detailing the lives, styles, and historical contexts of major masters—from Bach, Handel, and Vivaldi to Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven, and later Romantic and early 20th-century composers. Both volumes emphasize form, innovation, and cultural influence, offering concise yet comprehensive instruction that supports classroom use. About The Author: Hugo Riemann (1849–1919) was a prominent German musicologist and theorist whose work significantly shaped modern music theory. Renowned for his studies on harmony, rhythm, and musical form, Riemann introduced influential concepts such as functional harmony and tonal functions, which remain foundational in music analysis. He authored numerous theoretical texts and helped establish musicology as an academic discipline. Though often confused with mathematician Bernhard Riemann due to their similar names, Hugo Riemann's legacy lies entirely within music. His ideas influenced generations of scholars and continue to inform contemporary music theory and pedagogy. The Title 'A Catechism of Musical History written/authored/edited by D. H.
