Charles Seeger(
Book
)
18 editions published between 1994 and 2013 in 3 languages and held by 310 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
The two volumes of Studies in Musicology contain nearly three dozen elegant, deeply philosophical tracts on subjects ranging over the entire musical spectrum. This second volume, compiled by Seeger's biographer Ann M. Pescatello, includes several of his finest theoretical essays as well as some significant "occasional" papers, often on American subjects. Exemplifying the enormous scope of Seeger's interests, the contents range from "Tractatus Esthetico-Semioticus: Model of the Systems of Human Communication" and "Sources of Evidence and Criteria for Judgment in the Critique of Music" to "Grass Roots for American Composers" and "World Musics in American Schools."
