Audacious Euphony: Chromatic Harmony and the Triad's Second Nature - Oxford Studies in Music Theory
Cohn, Richard (Battell Professor of Music Theory, Battell Professor of Music Theory, Yale University, New Haven, CT)
Reconstructing historical conceptions of harmonic distance, Audacious Euphony advances a geometric model appropriate to understanding triadic progressions characteristic of 19th-century music. Rick Cohn uncovers the source of the indeterminacy and uncanniness of romantic music, as he focuses on the slippage between chromatic and diatonic progressions and the systematic principles under which each operate.
