Hearing Form

Hearing Form is a textbook for upper-level undergraduate college courses on the analysis of musical forms. It reviews concepts such as score reading, instrumental transposition, cadences, phrase structure, harmonic sequences, and modulation while at the same time introducing a style of phrase diagramming and an approach to hearing without the score that is used consistently throughout the book. The goal of this book is to teach students to:Identify phrase endings and cadence types in music with or without a scoreIdentify harmonic sequence types in music with or without a scoreIdentify modulations in music with or without a scoreIdentify formal sections in music with or without a scoreIdentify musical forms with or without a scoreHearing Form includes a workbook, a score anthology, and a companion web site. The workbook is bound together with the textbook and has perforated pages for the convenience of students and instructors alike. The companion website provides supplementary materials for the course, including recordings for all of the pieces in the anthology, quizzes, assignments, and additional scores not included in the anthology.
