| Abstract: |
The article reviews two recent music scholarship books, focusing primarily on *Modeling Musical Analysis*, edited by Kimberly Goddard Loeffert and John Peterson. This 2024 collection features 28 essays by predominantly minoritized scholars that apply diverse analytical approaches to a wide range of musical genres, including classical, popular, and non-Western music. The volume aims to enhance inclusivity in music theory pedagogy by providing accessible yet rigorous analyses suitable for advanced undergraduates, with detailed examples, bibliographies, and a companion website. The second book, *Bruckner’s Fourth: The Biography of a Symphony* by Benjamin M. Korstvedt, traces the compositional evolution and multiple versions of Anton Bruckner’s Fourth Symphony, contextualizing it within scholarly debates over authenticity and editorial interventions known as the Bruckner-Streit. Both works contribute significantly to their respective fields by combining scholarly depth with attention to historical and cultural contexts. [Extracted from the article] |
