和声与动机的联系以及“不协和音的解放” (《20世纪的音乐》第二章)

Harmonic and Motivic Associations and the "Emancipation of Dissonance" BRYAN R. SIMMS Chapter 2 from Music of the Twentieth Century

美国南加州大学音乐史学系主任B·西姆斯博士(B·Simms)1986年出版了一本书《20世纪的音乐——风格与结构》。该书的前三章集中论述了20世纪西方以调性发展为中心的和声语言演化过程以及作曲大师们在这场变革中各自的实践,并提出一些重要的新概念。这里发表的是该书的第二章(第一章——《过渡时期的调性》在本刊2003年第3期已发表)。

Doctor Bryan R. Simms, currently associate professor and chairman of the department of music history at the University of Southern California, published his work Music of the Twentieth Century: Style and Structure in 1986, and Harmonic and Motivic Associations and the 'Emancipation of Dissonance' is the chapter 2 of it. The first three chapters of the book are detailed introduction to the concepts, ideas techniques, compositional materials, and analytical principles of the music - the language needed to perceive and understand such a diverse, and often difficult, legacy of musical innovation.
