Haydn's 'Farewell' Symphony and the Idea of Classical Style: Through-Composition and Cyclic Integration in his Instrumental Music (Cambridge Studies in Music Theory and Analysis, Series Number 1)

This has become one of the essential texts in understanding music of the Classic Era. Webster is one of the leading scholars of 18th-century music and particularly of Joseph Haydn. It is not for the non-musician, as the analyses are quite extensive, but for those who can follow Webster's work, it is well worth the effort and repays study. I recommend this highly.

Great book, good condition
