"Interpreting Music" is a comprehensive essay on understanding
musical meaning and performing music meaningfully - 'interpreting
music' in both senses of the term. Synthesizing and advancing two
decades of highly influential work, Lawrence Kramer fundamentally
rethinks the concepts of work, score, performance, performativity,
interpretation, and meaning - even the very concept of music -
while breaking down conventional wisdom and received ideas. Kramer
argues that music, far from being closed to interpretation, is
ideally open to it, and that musical interpretation is the paradigm
of interpretation in general. The book illustrates the many
dimensions of interpreting music through a series of case studies
drawn from the classical repertoire, but its methods and principles
carry over to other repertoires just as they carry beyond music by
working through music to wider philosophical and cultural
questions.
