A Guide To Musical Analysis (Overview)

'A Guide To Musical Analysis' by Nicholas Cook, looks at multiple ways to analyse music such as 'Schenkerian Analysis', Psychological Approaches To Analysis', 'Comparative Analysis', Modern Approaches To Analysis and 'Formal' Approaches.

The literature details the aims and theories behind each analytical process and provides an in depth look at how to utilise each method.

The book will provide guidance when preparing an analytical framework for the 'Case Studies', (Music Analysis) required for the honours project. The framework will take aspects from multiple theories in order to obtain the specific information which is required and will be combined with my own knowledge and previous experiences to target specific point of interest when looking at film scores.
