Stufentheorie

It is one of the teaching traditions that "pairs" with Formenlehre

given that German is not my strong suit (I am trying to make up for it)

Asprirante I am linking the relevant English pages taken from Wikipedia

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_numeral_analysis (Stufentherie)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Musical_form (Formenlehre)

It is simply the theory of degrees, as they say in German.

Thanks RedScharlach... which only required saying it the Italian way

Thanks Antares, but I don't understand a damn thing about German, I opened the topic precisely because there were no links in Italian on the subject ...

Anyway, at least now I have framed the scope.

in fact they were in English ahahahahahah and regarding the theory of degrees I believe there is also a reference to the Italian page
