Good morning friends,

I would really appreciate some suggestions on books focused an the analysis of the music of these composers:

- Berg: mostly the "Wozzeck" and the first works (6 Orchesterstuecke, Altenberg-Lieder)

- Bartok: the quartets and the piano music

- Skrjabin: his harmonic system - there's a very famous essay about it written by a russian musicologist, Varvara Dernova: does anyone know if it's been translated into english?

- Debussy: the piano music

What I am looking for is a bibliography of books that deal thoroughly with their musical languages (e.g. harmonic structures, use of counterpoint, scales...).

Can you give me any suggestion? I am Italian, I can read English, French, Spanish end (some) German...

Thank you very much!
