Is this a dubs thread now?
Elements of Sonata Theory by Hepokosky and Darcy. I highly recommend going through it slowly and following along with each musical example it provides as I guarantee you will come out the other end with a renewed appreciation of eighteenth century music.

Did he write it, or did someone write it about him?
I'm fine with reading books written by actual musicians, I just don't read the biography hogwash, because it's just fanfiction.
>>61182557
Ah, I understand now. You listen to music purely for entertainment. How quaint.
>>61182452
>he
Who?
It's not, I'm more of a literature guy myself. Narrative literature, mind you, so a non-fiction book about music seems pretty useless despite my love for music.
WHY would anyone actively choose not to learn more about a subject that interests them?
Do kids just not read anymore because of the internet? Is that it?

People these days easily read more than any generation in human history. Just because someone is not looking at ink on bound paper doesn't mean they aren't reading. For example I bet most 4chan regulars have read the equivalent of Anna Karenina in shitposts.

There is an enormous difference between internet bullshit and well-researched, peer-reviewed and insightful books.
>>61183365
That's like saying that billboards and traffic signs are the same as an actual book
