For Nineteenth-Century Classical Music courses. This up-to-date view of nineteenth-century classical music places a strong emphasis on the history of opera and on schematic representations of musical structure and form. The book presents a highly concise survey of nineteenth-century music tailored for the increasingly limited amount of time available to students for the study of any one period, and focuses specifically on the central repertory heard today in the concert hall and at the opera house.
