information on the handbook




The original SchenkerGUIDE website was reviewed by PALATINE, the UK Higher Education Subject Centre for Music. The full review can be read on the theory and analysis links page:

"Undergraduates invariably find Schenkerian analysis completely new and challenging when they first encounter it. This site by Tom Pankhurst suggests a working method for doing basic Schenkerian analysis and provides details on Schenker's theories and references to literature and further online resources. The site is exemplary in every sense, and is even likely to be popular among students: it has a panic button for students who have exams coming up! The author has a gift for presenting information to the student who needs sensible, concise answers about a topic that is too often shrouded in complexity. But detail is not compromised and the why questions are discussed head-on, by a musicologist who clearly has a deep understanding of the field. The style and structure of the site provide a model for other potential fields of musical and technical learning."
