INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections w ith a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation. Silver prints of "photographs" may be ordered at additional charge by writing the Order Department, giving the catalog number, title, author and specific pages you wish reproduced. 5. PLEASE NOTE: Some pages may have indistinct print. Filmed as received.

The most loving of acknowledgments goes to the head, heart, and hands of Judith Thomas who used to be an exper ienced practitioner of double duty and is now a virtuoso. An award for surviving without a full-time father goes to three sons, Jeffrey, Michael, and Jason, and a very honor able mention is beholden my parents for the moral support they offered from a vantage point in the South. iii VITA April 3, 1934- • . • • Born - Cleveland, Ohio 1936 •.•••••• B.A., Miami University, Oxford, Ohio 1963 •••*•••• M.A., The Eastman School of Music, Rochester, New York 1965 «•••••••Assistant Professor of Music, Ashland College, Ohio 1974 Associate Professor of Music and Chairman of the Department of Music, Ashland College, Ohio FIELDS OF STUDY Major Field: Music Theory Studies in Music Theory • • Professors Barnes, Phelps Studies in Musicology • • * Professors Hoppin, Mixter iv TABLE OF CONTENTS ACKNOWLEDGMENTS ......................................... il 7 IT A ....................................................... iv PREFACE Sources............................................. vii Meanings and Definitions . ix Purpose and Scope. ............

The other is the Anmuthige Clavier-Ubung (Nuremberg: Endter, 1699), a col lection of seven Fugue's, five Ricercars, nine Preludes, two Toccatas, a Fantasia, and a Chaconne. A practical edition of these two collections edited by Max Seiffert^ is contained in the Denkmaler der Ton- kunst in Bayern, herein abbreviated DTB. Other keyboard works by Krieger included in this volume of the DTB are ^Repertoire international des sources musicales, ed. Karlheinz Schlager (KasVel: Sarenreiter, T975) , 5: i49.
