Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The book critically explores two contrasting approaches to understanding instrumental music, challenging the 'literary' interpretation that focuses on narrative and representational content. Instead, it advocates for musical formalism, emphasizing the intrinsic qualities of music itself. Throughout the discussion, various canonical works of absolute music are analyzed, providing insights into the complexities of musical interpretation and the philosophical underpinnings of music appreciation.
