| Abstract | Explores the fundamental role played by music theory in the practice of composition, and examines the relationship between the rigors of theoretical training and the inspirational image of the great composers. By examining original manuscripts used by Beethoven and Handel, the program demonstrates how the great composers regarded training as important, and reveals the training methods employed in their work. |
