The Art of Accompaniment from a Thorough-Bass: As Practiced in the XVII and XVIII Centuries, Volume I 伴奏

要全面瞭解巴羅克音樂，就必須扎實掌握 17 和 18 世紀的音樂技巧。正如學者鄧尼斯-史蒂文斯（Denis Stevens）在這部作品的序言中所說，只有當獨奏者學會了有品位地潤色旋律線條的溫和藝術，當連奏樂器演奏者懂得他們的角色可能是整個合奏中最重要的角色時，才能充分享受音樂。阿諾德的這部傳奇性作品是對其主題的全面考察，涵蓋了對當今演奏傢俱有重要意義的每一個問題。書中有大量音樂實例、權威引文、學術詮釋和綜述，以及作者自己的結論。該書是音樂學家取之不盡、用之不竭的資料寶庫，也是指揮家、編輯或演奏家不可或缺的良師益友。鄧尼斯-史蒂文斯（Denis Stevens）為多佛爾版本撰寫了序言。兩卷本中的第二卷"

原文簡介:
A solid grounding in musical techniques of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries is essential to a complete understanding of Baroque music. As scholar Denis Stevens says in his introduction to this work, "Full enjoyment will come only when the soloist learns the gentle art of tasteful embellishment of a melodic line, and when continuo players learn that their role is perhaps the most important in the entire ensemble." Arnold's legendary work is a comprehensive survey of its topic, covering every issue of significance to today's performer. The text is fully amplified with numerous musical examples, authoritative citations, scholarly interpretations and syntheses, and the author's own conclusions. An inexhaustible collection of source material for the musicologist as well as an indispensable companion for conductor, editor, or performer. Unabridged republication of the first edition (1931), originally published by Oxford University Press. Introduction to the Dover edition by Denis Stevens. First of two volumes.
