While the notation of 17th and 18thcentury music looks familiar, its meanings and the treatment of meter in performance have evolved dramatically. When performed according to the conventions of its own time, the music of 16001800 balances precision and flexibility, with an enchanting lilt, grace, and vitality. With many quotations and musical examples from theoretical treatises and instruction manuals of the period, Meter in Music is a practical guide to the performance of Baroque and early Classical music, with guidance on notes inegales, fingerings, bowings, and woodwind tonguings.

As a grad student focusing on music cognition, this book is invaluable. The performance aspects are particularly enlightening. It’s dense, but if you’re serious about music theory, definitely worth the investment.

A must-have for music educators
I bought this for my teaching resources, and it's been fantastic! The sections on perception help me explain concepts to my students in new ways. Definitely a good addition to any music educator’s library.

Great resource for music students!
I got this book for my son who's studying music theory, and he loves it. The insights on performance and perception really open up discussions in class. Highly recommend it for any music scholarship program!

A bit overwhelming at times
I appreciate the depth of this book, but I sometimes found it quite overwhelming. Some sections are packed with info that could slow down the casual reader. It’s great for a deep dive, though!

Solid read but not for everyone
While I found some parts of the book insightful, a lot of it felt a bit too academic for my taste. If you're deeply into music scholarship, it might be up your alley, but I struggled to connect with all the notation details.
