During the 1950s and 1960s, Austro-German scholars made decisive advances in developing concepts to account for "harmonic" processes in late medieval music. Despite the considerable potential these ideas hold for analysis and criticism of early music, they have hitherto exerted little influence outside their countries of origin. In order to render this valuable literature more immediately accessible to English-speaking students and scholars, this book presents translations of twelve seminal articles that originally appeared during the years 1948-1967, along with a comprehensive introductory chapter detailing the evolution of competing theories and terminology.

Book Description
Editorial Reviews
Review
Moll has performed the herculean service of making these [compositional] issues accessible, . . . [and he] deserves our gratitude for a major achievement. This is essential reading and reference material for anyone working on fifteenth-century music. Indeed, subscription to a Garland series that has started so auspiciously may confidently be recommended.
