This book interprets the music theory of Henrich Schenker (1868-1935), as part of a project encompassing musical reform and social and political critique. It sets his work into the contexts of Viennese modernism, German cultural conservatism, and Schenker's position as a Jewish immigrant to the city where modern anti-semitism first developed.
