We are pleased to announce the publication of a new issue of Music Theory Online.
Dear List Members,
I am pleased to announce the publication of Volume 30, No. 3 of Music Theory Online. The seven weighty pieces appearing in this issue center on Western music spanning roughly the last four centuries. On the Baroque and Classical side, there are four articles that to varying extents treat issues of form, harmony, performance, and pedagogy. The other three articles, which center on the more modern genres of jazz, ballet, and bluegrass, interrogate aspects of collaboration and live performance.
We, the members of the editorial board and staff, extend a warm invitation for you to stop by to partake in and enjoy all of this fine scholarship!
