Chromatic Transformations in Nineteenth-Century Music, by David Kopp
David Kopp’s book develops a model of chromatic chord relations in nineteenth-century music by composers such as Schubert, Beethoven, Chopin, Schumann, and Brahms. The emphasis is on explaining chromatic third relations and the pivotal role they play in theory and practice. The book traces conceptions of harmonic system and of chromatic third relations from Rameau through nineteenth-century theorists such as Marx, Hauptmann, and Riemann, to the seminal twentieth-century theorists Schenker and Schönberg, and on to the present day. Drawing on tenets of nineteenth-century harmonic theory, contemporary transformation theory, and the author's own approach, the book presents a clear and elegant means of characterizing commonly acknowledged but loosely defined elements of chromatic harmony, and integrates them as fully fledged elements into a chromatically based conception of harmonic system. The historical and theoretical argument is supplemented by plentiful analytic examples.
