Critics Review

“Timely and practical, Loeffert and Peterson’s Modeling Musical Analysis celebrates the academic work of minoritized scholars in music theory, thus addressing our exclusionist history of only highlighting white academics in the field. As we music educators grapple with inclusion in the classroom, this volume will prove to be utterly indispensable.”Philip Ewell, Professor of Music Theory, Hunter College“This is one of those rare books that fulfills multiple purposes and succeeds at all of them: modeling musical analytical essays appropriate for undergraduate students, giving a voice to scholars of minority groups, providing eminently teachable analytical materials, and including music from underrepresented minorities and world cultures. The editors and authors deserve acclaim for creating such a diverse and rich pedagogical space in this remarkable volume.”Miguel A. Roig-Francolí, Distinguished Teaching Professor of Music Theory and Composition, University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music
