商品簡介
This volume contains 14 essays on key concepts or terms in the aesthetics of music: values and judgments; absolute music; program music; the beautiful and the sublime; dialectics and musical analysis; classicism/neoclassicism; romanticism/anti-romanticism; jazz, avant-garde, and tradition; narrative; music and the moving image; irony; propaganda; and virtuosity and the virtuoso. Musicologists from the UK and North America consider the historical origins of the concepts, their sources and developments, musicological approaches, new critical angles, and musical examples from various styles, periods, and regions.
