The Oxford History of Western Music, College Edition, Second Edition, immerses students in the engaging story of the Western musical tradition. By emphasizing the connections among works, both within each cultural era and across time and place, the text goes beyond a basic retelling of the music's history to build students' ability to listen critically to key works.
A full suite of instructor resources, a free open-access student Companion Website, a three-volume score anthology, and streaming audio recordings support the text, making The Oxford History of Western Music, College Edition, Second Edition, a complete program for building students' understanding and appreciation of the classical canon. 《牛津西方音乐史》(大学版,第二版)使学生沉浸在西方音乐传统的迷人故事中。 通过强调各个文化时代内以及跨时间和跨地点的作品之间的联系,文字超越了音乐历史的基本重述,从而增强了学生批判性地聆听关键作品的能力。
