| Synopsis: |
In Music in the Mirror, thirteen distinguished scholars explore the concept of music, music theory, and music literature as mirror images of one another - whether real or distorted. Encompassing the history of music and music theory and literature from the Middle Ages to the present, these essays in their reconsideration of the relationships among music, theory, and literature offer new approaches and articulate compelling visions for future research. The contributors, whose work spans historical periods from the Middle Ages to the twentieth century, include Thomas Christensen (University of Chicago), Calvin M. Bower (University of Notre Dame), Margaret Bent (Oxford University), Anthony Newcomb (University of California, Berkeley), Tim Carter (University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill), John Walter Hill (University of Illinois-Urbana-Champagne), Dan Harran (Hebrew University), Wye J. Allanbrook (University of California, Berkeley), Philip Gossett (University of Chicago), Lee Rothfarb (University of California-Santa Barbara), Robert P. Morgan (Yale University), David Neumeyer (University of Texas-Austin), and Lewis Rowell (Indiana University).Andreas Giger is an assistant professor of music at Louisiana State University. Thomas J. Mathiesen is Distinguished Professor of Music, David H. Jacobs Chair in Music, and director of the Center for the History of Music Theory and Literature at Indiana University.
