Emotion and Meaning in Music (Phoenix Books)

"Altogether it is a book that should be required reading for any student of music, be he composer, performer, or theorist. It clears the air of many confused notions . . . and lays the groundwork for exhaustive study of the basic problem of music theory and aesthetics, the relationship between pattern and meaning."â€”David Kraehenbuehl, Journal of Music Theory
