Book excerpt: Heinrich Schenker ranks among the most important figures in the development of western music theory in the 20th century. In his 4 volume work, he presented editions of Beethoven's Opp. 109, 110, 111 and 101 that were, at the time, unprecedented in their faithfulness to such authoritative sources as Beethoven's autograph manuscripts. He included detailed discussion of form and content that grew increasingly penetrating as the musical theory for which he is now known was developed, alongside inspired and detailed suggestions for the performance of each section of each work.
