features "Suggestions for Discussion" and "Questions for Analysis," and new selections including more pieces by Brahms, Wagner, Schumann, Liszt, and Bach. A comprehensive, up-to-the minute, 20th-century section now includes additional pieces by Schonberg, Webern, Sessions, Rouse, Horne, Prokofiev,
and Macmillan.
