From the rear cover

'Of the greatest significance... The first volume of George Perle's two-volume study on the two operas of Alban Berg... is one of those few works of scholarship and analysis you can label 'definitive'; it may in time be supplemented, but not superseded.' - Richard Dyer, Boston Sunday Globe.
