Bernhard Ziehn - the forgotten contrpuntalist,
By
This review is from: Canonic Studies (Paperback)
I have been looking for this book, now reprinted, for literally years. In it Ziehn (1845-1912) develops his theory of counterpoint. Key notions are:
(i) inversion, in a 'real' rather than tonal, procedure, which often requires all twelve semitones and is not fixed to any particular key (ii) canon - Ziehn saw imitation as a primary source of musical ideas. Ziehn was greatly influenced by Ferrucio Busoni, another sadly underappreciated composer and contrapuntalist. It remains to be seen how much of Schoenberg's thinking may have been influenced by Ziehn. |
