currentmusicology-5381	Millard, Russell	Telling Tales: A Survey of Narratological Approaches to Music	2018	40	.pdf	application/pdf	14638	673	49	In a series of articles that since have become classics in the field of musical narrative, Anthony Newcomb (1984; 1987; 1992) adapted Propp’s 8 Current Musicology insights for music by drawing an analogy between functional sequences and plot archetypes in literature, on the one hand, and formal types in music, on the other, explaining that both can be thought of as “a standard series of functional events in a prescribed order” (1987, 165). If one is tempted to speak of musical narrative it is due, not to its intrinsic and immanent content, but because of the effects of syntactic organization of music, the narrative course that orders the music thanks to the games of implications and realizations that [Leonard] Meyer has described so well.	cache/currentmusicology-5381.pdf	txt/currentmusicology-5381.txt
