Breakthrough in the New Formenlehre: On the Musicological Potential of Music Theory and Analysis

这个项目通过对《突破》的个案研究来探索19世纪音乐形式的理论：这是一项对交响乐的形式和表现力的叙述进行批判性改变的中断性事件。分析了从贝多芬到西贝柳斯的交响乐语料库，它开发了一个强大的理论帐户，这有助于探索突破产生的音乐分析和音乐外关注。此外，要理解《突破》融合的技术和表现因素，还需要一种学术实践，涉及音乐理论更广泛的文化-政治相关性的当代问题。因此，这项研究对十九世纪的形式理论和它在音乐学学术中更广泛的作用的争论都是至关重要的。

This project explores the theory of nineteenth-century musical form through the case study of 'Breakthrough': an interruptive event that critically alters a symphony's formal and expressive narratives. Analysing a corpus of symphonies from Beethoven to Sibelius, it develops a robust theoretical account, which facilitates exploration of the music-analytical and extra-musical concerns that Breakthrough engenders. Comprehending Breakthrough's confluence of technical and expressive factors, moreover, necessitates a scholarly practice that engages contemporary questions of music theory's broader cultural-political relevance. This research therefore contributes vitally both to the theory of nineteenth-century form and to debates about its wider role in musicological scholarship.
