▼a "A History of the Symphony: The Grand Genre seeks to identify the underlying philosophical and sociological purposes from which the symphony has been directed over the past two hundred years. It goes beyond the discussion of individual composers and the stylistic evolution of the symphony in the abstract, to address important overarching questions of what actually constitutes a "symphony" in each historical period. It describes how such works fit into the lives of composers and audiences of the time. Further, it draws connections between symphonic examples from different countries and historical periods in an attempt to determine whether there is an historically consistent concept of a "symphonic principle." Beginning with a survey of the antecedents of this genre that lie in the Baroque period, A History of the Symphony proceeds chronologically from the earliest Italian symphonies of c. 1730 to the most experimental works of the late 20th century. Within this broad chronology, discussion of the development of the symphony will frequently break down along national lines that outline divergent but parallel paths of stylistic growth. The repertoire covered will consist mainly of works by European and American composers-works that they themselves have titled "symphony." But in the process of trying to decide what is and what is not a symphony, it brings related musical developments in other genres to bear on the narrative of this genre, for example, the serenade, the tone poem, and the concert overture wherever appropriate. Each chapter will include several musical examples that illustrate specific themes in the work under discussion. At the end of each chapter is a short list of suggestions for further reading drawn from some of the more specialized histories of the symphony, as well as a list of suggested recordings"--
