Charles-Simon Catel's Treatise on Harmony and the Disciplining of Harmony at the Early Paris Conservatory
Abstract
Charles-Simon Catel's Treatise on Harmony and the Disciplining of Harmony at the Early Paris Conservatory traces the formation of the discipline of harmony at the early Paris Conservatory, focusing on the 1801 treatise of Charles-Simon Catel. By examining the forces that shaped Catel's text, Michael J. Masci reconstitutes the contours of the dynamic “disciplinary network” that determined the content and scope of the study of harmony in Paris, expanding our understanding of practical harmony traditions.
