Fantasy Pieces: Metrical Dissonance in the Music of Robert Schumann
Krebs, Harald (Professor of Music, Professor of Music, University of Victoria, Canada)
This volume presents a theory of metrical conflict and applies it to the music of Robert Schumann, thereby placing that composer's distinctive metrical style in focus. Krebs describes categories of metrical conflict that characterize the music of Schumann and studies the interaction of metrical conflict with form, pitch structure, and text.
