A Tribute to Karl Geiringer on his Seventieth Birthday

About this book

Originally published in 1970 this collection of essays by a renowned international musicologist is both imaginative in scope and authoritative in scholarship. The works of such famous composers as Joseph Haydn, Handel, J.S. Bach and C.P.E. Bach are discussed in detail, as are the achievements of other composers of that era – Lenoardo Leo, Johann Mattheson, Puccinni, Clementi and so on. The book includes essays by Gerald Abraham, Robert Donington, Putnam Aldrich and William G. Waite, among others. These essays are also of wide biographical, sociological and historical interest. Studies in Eighteenth-Century Music is a major contribution to aesthetics in music.
