Ulrich Michels: dtv-Atlas Musik (Single-volume special edition)

Description:

dtv-Atlas Music is a world-renowned music encyclopedia that offers a detailed overview of the theoretical foundations of music and a comprehensive account of music history, spanning from the earliest monuments of prehistory to both classical and popular music of the 20th century.

The volume includes 250 full-page color plates with graphic illustrations and a wealth of musical examples, enabling readers to understand musical structures at a glance. Designed as both a study resource and a reference work, it is an indispensable guide for anyone entering the world of music.

Foreword (German edition)
The aim of the Atlas of Music is to introduce the field of music knowledge and provide a concise overview of both the fundamentals and history of music within a limited space. Through numerous examples and illustrations, the book attempts to make the structures and aspects of music immediately clear.

The book is divided into two sections: systematic and historical. The historical section takes up the majority of the volume, and even the systematic part is permeated with historical context, since almost all phenomena in music have a historical background. The chronological classification of musical eras, as presented here, is just one of many possible choices; strict categorization or naming eras with general keywords can rarely reflect the full complexity of musical developments.

In each period, topics are classified mainly by genre and arranged as chronologically as possible (for example, Bach before Handel). However, in the 19th century section, classification by genre becomes problematic due to overlapping categories of content, scoring, and form, which take on new combinations. Thus, this system is no longer applied in the 20th century, though the principle of chronological presentation of composers is maintained.

For better clarity, the thematic units are designed, where possible, with one page of charts and one page of text. Musical notation (symbols, abbreviations, and performance directions) is standardized throughout, with explanations provided in a table on p. 10, since many of these terms may not be immediately understood by general readers.

To enhance its function as a reference, the Atlas of Music concludes with an index divided into persons and subjects.

Special thanks are due to Mr. Vogel of Titisee-Neustadt (1988), who collaborated harmoniously with the author in designing the charts; to Mr. Ernst Abromeit of Tübingen for his assistance with the musical examples; to Dr. Ruth Blue of Kassel for proofreading; and especially to the reviewers in Munich (Anna Coseriu, Elisabeth Guhl, Winfried Groth), who have continually updated this work.

烏里希・米勒爾斯: 《音樂圖驥》 單卷特別版

簡介 Description:

《音樂圖驥》(dtv-Atlas Musik) 是世界知名的音樂百科全書，完整呈現音樂的理論基礎，以及從史前時期至二十世紀古典與通俗音樂的歷史發展。

書中包含250幅全頁彩色圖表，透過直觀的圖像與豐富的樂譜範例，幫助讀者輕鬆掌握音樂結構與理論。本書既可作為學習工具，也適合隨時查閱，是探索音樂世界不可或缺的經典著作。

德文版前言
《音樂圖驥》的目標，是要介紹音樂的知識領域，並在有限的篇幅中，概覽音樂的基礎與歷史。本書透過大量譜例與圖像，嘗試讓音樂的結構與各個面向一目了然。

全書分為「系統篇」與「歷史篇」兩部分，其中歷史篇佔據大部分篇幅，甚至系統篇亦融入歷史背景，因為幾乎所有音樂現象都深具歷史性。關於歷史篇所採取的時代劃分，只是眾多可能方式之一；嚴格的劃分與以關鍵字概括命名，往往難以真實反映音樂發展的多重面向。

在各個時期中，主題大多依樂種分類，並盡可能按時間順序排列（如巴赫先於韓德爾）。然而十九世紀的樂種分類已顯示出其侷限，因內容、編制與曲式等層面出現過度重疊與新的組合型態，因此二十世紀不再採用此方式，但作曲家的時間序列原則仍予以保留。

為求清晰，每個主題單元盡量設計為「一頁圖表 + 一頁文字」。樂譜中統一使用縮寫記號、符號與演奏指示，並於第10頁的附表詳列解釋，避免一般讀者難以理解。

作為查詢用的參考書籍，《音樂圖驥》最後附有索引，分為人物與事項兩部分。

特別感謝蒂蒂湖-新城的 Vogel 先生（1988），他與作者合作設計了本書圖表；圖賓根的 Ernst Abromeit 先生協助完成譜例；卡塞爾的 Ruth Blue 博士負責審校；尤其感謝慕尼黑的其他校閱人員（Anna Coseriu、Elisabeth Guhl、Winfried Groth），他們持續為本書更新與完善。
