Book excerpt: Performing Knowledge explores the relationship between musical performance and analysis through a unique collaboration between a music theorist and a cast of internationally renowned performers, investigating major musical works of the twentieth century--Ravel, Schoenberg, Bartók, Schnittke, Milhaud, Messiaen, Babbitt, Carter, and Morris. The book is a brave crossing of disciplinary divides between scholarship and practice, a theory text enlivened by the voices of performers who create, interpret, and articulate structure.
