This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1862 edition. Excerpt: ... II. THE MORAL THEORY OF MUSIC. When one of the many and various influences that continually surround humanity occupies such a close relationship with the nature of man as to personally affect it, such an influence will always produce within this nature a certain fresh impression, some internal flow of feeling more or less abiding, agreeable, or elevated. Now, as throughout the great realm of humanity, such an action as this is continually going on, and as amidst all mankind there exists a strong and unremitting tendency to express the inward feelings, and a mutual necessity to convey the various facts and occurrences, and thus to diffuse the different influences of emotion, in life; as in short it is a remarkable property of humanity to both physically and morally associate, --it will be observed that every communication from human lips, to effect its due result upon the hearer, must contain two distinct constituent elements--namely, the mechanical symbols or words of exactly defined power, and the free tone, emphasis, and pause, of power indefinite and unprescribed; the serviceable office fulfilled bythe former being to convey the abstract facts that were to be imparted, and that of the latter to express the feelings and impressions those facts previously aroused in the narrator. "Thus, suppose a person to be relating to another the occurrence of some catastrophe in which the narrator was himself involved, and that this catastrophe were a shipwreck. His words would impart the abstract facts that happened, but the gradations of Tone in which he uttered them, the striking Emphasis, and the effective Pause, would convey the Feelings he experienced through the scene he is recording, in the temperament of which he is now relating it; so that...

This volume presents a new collection of essays, all of them dealing with music, by Jerrold Levinson, one of the most prominent philosophers of art today. It follows in the line of Levinson's earlier collections, Music, Art, and Metaphysics (1990), The Pleasures of Aesthetics (1996), and Contemplating Art (2006), and is representative of the most stimulating work being done under the rubric of analytic aesthetics. The essays, which are wide-ranging, should appeal to aestheticians, philosophers, musicologists, music theorists, music critics and music lovers of all kinds. Three of the twelve essays comprising the volume have not previously been published, and in somewhat of a departure for Levinson, four of the essays focus on music in the jazz tradition.

Music, Language, and Cognition is the third collection of Peter Kivy's seminal papers in the philosophy of music. In essays which span his earliest work in the field and his more recent contributions to journals, anthologies, and conference proceedings, Kivy considers the origin of music, the medium of expression in opera, the role of music in film, the nature of an 'ideal' performance, and the question of whether absolute music has a meaning, among other issues. Rich with critical analysis and informed by the history of both philosophy and music, this volume will be of interest to anyone who likes not only to listen to music, but to think about it as well.

Sounding Off brings together a selection of essays on philosophy of music written by Peter Kivy—the leading expert on the subject. The essays fall into four groups, corresponding to Kivy's major interests. Part I contains two essays on the nature of musical genius. In Part II, three essays take up the subject of authenticity in performance, and explore what Kivy terms 'the authenticity of interpretation'. Part III contains four essays concerning the much discussed issues of musical representation and musical meaning. Finally, Part IV consists of three essays on the 'pure musical parameters': these are essays on 'music alone' or 'absolute music'—music as the pure, formal structure of (sometimes) expressive sound. Eight of the eleven essays presented here are previously unpublished, and the book includes two appendices which provide Kivy's responses to criticism.
