Excerpt from On Purity in Musical Art The fact that this Essay was first published more than half a century ago, might seem, at first sight, to render its translation now a work of doubtful utility. But, inasmuch as it is still in demand in Germany, as is proved by the publication of the Fifth Edition as recently as in 1875, and looking to the great extension of the study and practice of music in our own country, I am persuaded that it will be read both with interest and with profit in England. Anton Friedrich Justus Thibaut was first Professor of Jurisprudence at Heidelberg, and author of several important treatises on Roman and modern law, published between 1797 and 1818.

An excerpt from the beginning of the first chapter: ON THE CHORALE. It has perhaps never been so generally acknowledged as at the present time that the groundwork of all true knowledge must necessarily lie in the historical study and acquisition of standard works that have come down to us. It is only by thus profiting by the lessons of others that fresh energy can safely be applied towards the advancement of truth. Acquaintance with the older masterpieces may also have the great negative advantage of convincing worthless pretensions of their futility, and of diverting them from the business of production to the quiet enjoyment and diffusion of the model works we have inherited from past ages. Men of real genius, like Plato, Raphael, and Shakespeare, are phenomena of extremely rare occurrence; but it has been theirs to sway generation after generation, and to exert a beneficial influence for thousands of years. Hence it is of all conceits the most pitiable for anyone to dispense with the study of the classics from confidence in his own powers, and so, in effect, declare that he considers himself on a par with the great spirits of bygone time. All our young men of education make it almost a point of honour to revert to the model authors of antiquity; and any one who was setting up for a painter would assuredly no more venture to pronounce the study of the works of Raphael, Michael Angelo, Van Eyck, and Dürer, to be superfluous, than would a youthful poet venture to come out with a new Iliad, or a new King Lear, without acquainting himself with the immortal works of Homer or Shakespeare. Hence in poetry, painting, and architecture, we now have a freshness and life which cannot but please, though it happens often enough that a want of genius and power causes the best intentions to fall short of the complete fulfilment of their aim. It is in music alone that an arrogance, that disdains all history, is the order of the day, although the greatest masters of the period preceding our own showed us a better example. There was nothing on which Handel, Hasse, and Graun were more eagerly bent than on the thorough prosecution of musical study in Italy. They did not indeed follow the example of most of our professors, who take every opportunity of showing off with a few bravura pieces laboriously mastered, and think that classical taste is to be found among the audiences of the concert-room; but, whilst composing fine works, and offering them to the judgment of the public, they took care to study the standard works of others for themselves, and cultivated an intimate acquaintance with the most eminent masters. Sebastian Bach, again, who was prevented from travel ling, studied intently the works of other masters-Caldara, the immortal Venetian, being one of his especial favourites. Even Mozart, though his genius rendered him well nigh independent of others, yet held the chief works of his predecessors-those of Handel and Sebastian Bach in particular-in high esteem; and it is owing, primarily, to his edition of the " Messiah" that Handel's reputation has outlived an age of musical shallowness. But now, how utterly changed is all this! We see now an almost absolute reliance on individual powers, an unlimited amount of original composition, and, for the most part, a contemptuous disregard for what is called antiquated.

Why do we value music? Many people report that listening to music is one of life's most rewarding activities. In Critique of Pure Music, James O. Young seeks to explain why this is so. Formalists tell us that music is appreciated as pure, contentless form. On this view, listeners receive pleasure, or a pleasurable 'musical' emotion, when they explore the abstract patterns found in music. Music, formalists believe, does not arouse ordinary emotions such as joy, melancholy or fear, nor can it represent emotion or provide psychological insight. Young holds that formalists are wrong on all counts. Drawing upon the latest psychological research, he argues that music is expressive of emotion by resembling human expressive behaviour. By resembling human expressive behaviour, music is able to arouse ordinary emotions in listeners. This, in turn, makes possible the representation of emotion by music. The representation of emotion in music gives music the capacity to provide psychological insight-into the emotional lives of composers, and the emotional lives of individuals from a variety of times and places. And it is this capacity of music to provide psychological insight which explains a good deal of the value of music, both vocal and purely instrumental. Without it, music could not be experienced as profound. Philosophers, psychologists, musicians, musicologists, and music lovers will all find something of interest in this book.

This is a multi-purpose book, just like the previously published book entitled "ZEN AND THE ART OF MOTORCYCLE MAINTENANCE," which had more to do with human growth than motorcycle maintenance. This book is a natural model for how musicians, as human beings, deal with each other, thereby providing a baseline for humans in answering Shakespeare's question, "TO BE OR NOT TO BE!" FURTHER, THIS BOOK IS SUBSTANTIVE AND FULL OF DEPTH, ENOUGH TO BE USED IN MUSIC SCHOOLS NO MATTER WHAT MUSICAL GENRE SINCE IT FOCUSES ON MUSICALITY, PURE SOUND, THE ART OF MUSICALITY, AND PEACE.

Brahms in the Priesthood of Art: Gender and Art Religion in the Nineteenth-Century German Musical Imagination explores the intersection of gender, art religion (Kunstreligion) and other aesthetic currents in Brahms reception of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. In particular, it focuses on the theme of the self-sacrificing musician devoted to his art, or "priest of music," with its quasi-mystical and German Romantic implications of purity seemingly at odds with the lived reality of Brahms's bourgeois existence. While such German Romantic notions of art religion informed the thinking on musical purity and performance, after the failed socio-political revolutions of 1848/49, and in the face of scientific developments, the very concept of musical priesthood was questioned as outmoded. Furthermore, its essential gender ambiguity, accommodating such performing mothers as Clara Schumann and Amalie Joachim, could suit the bachelor Brahms but leave the composer open to speculation. Supportive critics combined elements of masculine and feminine values with a muddled rhetoric of prophets, messiahs, martyrs, and other art-religious stereotypes to account for the special status of Brahms and his circle. Detractors tended to locate these stereotypes in a more modern, fin-de-siècle psychological framework that questioned the composer's physical and mental well-being. In analyzing these receptions side by side, this book revises the accepted image of Brahms, recovering lost ambiguities in his reception. It resituates him not only in a romanticized priesthood of art, but also within the cultural and gendered discourses overlooked by the absolute music paradigm.
