Book excerpt: "By providing a consistent point of view from which music of any style or period can be examined, the style-analytical approach insures the close examination of all dimensions and elements, an understanding of their functions and interrelations, and a firm basis for evaluation and comparison. Not a system of musical theory, Guidelines for Style Analysis is rather an extension and codification of various partial ways of looking at music into a comprehensive framework."--Publisher.
