Timothy L. Jackson's primary
interests center on the music of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries,
and Schenkerian theory. He is well-known for his work on the music of
Richard Strauss, on which he wrote his doctoral dissertation (Ph.D. in
Music Theory, 1988, the Graduate Center of the City University of New
York). Since completing the doctorate under Carl Schachter, Jackson's
interests have branched out from German music to encompass the Russian and
Finnish traditions. He authored the monograph on Tchaikovsky's Sixth
Symphony (Pathetique) for the Cambridge Handbooks Series (1999) in
addition to co-editing Bruckner Studies (Cambridge, 1997), Sibelius
Studies (Cambridge, 2001) and Perspectives on Anton Bruckner (Ashgate,
2001). With Paul Hawkshaw (Yale), he wrote the composer article on
Bruckner for the Revised New Groves Dictionary of Music and Musicians (
2001). Currently, he is editing a volume of Richard Strauss Studies, also
for Cambridge. Jackson has published on a wide range of topics, especially
on theories of form and large-scale tonal structure, in such theory
journals as The Journal of Music Theory, Music Analysis, In Theory Only,
and Theory and Practice. His research on twentieth-century composers such
as Schoenberg and Shostakovich, has been published in an array of journals
including 19th-century Music, The Musical Quarterly, Music and Letters,
Journal of Musicological Research, and the International Journal of
Musicology, and also books published by Cambridge, Duke, and Princeton
University Presses. Jackson has one daughter Serena.
