Biographical note
William Caplin pursued his formative studies at the University of Southern California, the University of Chicago, and the Berlin Technical University, where his mentors included some of the most notable musicologists of the twentieth century (including Leonard Meyer, Edward Lowinsky, Philip Gossett, and Carl Dahlhaus). He has taught at McGill University since 1978 and was appointed James McGill Professor of Music Theory in 2005. His extensive investigations into formal procedures of late-eighteenth-century music culminated in the publication of Classical Form: A Theory of Formal Functions for the InstrumentalMusic of Haydn, Mozart, and Beethoven (Oxford University Press, 1998), which won the 1999 Wallace Berry Book Award from the Society for Music Theory. A textbook version of this work, titled Analyzing Classical Form, is scheduled for publication in early 2012. In March 2011, William Caplin was awarded a coveted Killam Research Fellowship from the Canada Council for the Arts.
