Title: The nature of harmony and metre
Description: This 19th century music treatise discusses the nature of harmony and meter. Hauptmann finds rational explanations for musical harmony and meter from a Hegelian perspective, i.e., that of thesis, antithesis, and synthesis (he uses the terms unity, opposition, and unified oposition). Harmonically, Hauptmann is essentially a dualist like Oettigen, Riemann, and others.
Subjects: Harmony, Musical meter and rhythm
