"This is a rich and challenging collection, sparked by Rose
Rosengard Subotnik's notion of 'structural listening, ' that offers
a spirited critique of modernist aesthetic assumptions. Its authors
write from a common perspective that sets their views at odds with
the terms that have most commonly determined musical discourse in
the twentieth century, and at the same time they consider
listeners' involvement with a wide range of musics from the high
modernism of Boulez and Barraque through the standard classical
repertory to MTV. There is something here to interest every music
scholar and listener."--Ruth A. Solie, author of "Music in Other
Words: Victorian Conversations
"The most impressive collection of separately authored essays
musicology has yet seen. They are persuasive in their theoretical
sophistication and in how they demonstrate original tactics for
illuminating musical meanings. This collection is a landmark
contribution that will take musical scholarship by
surprise."--Robert Walser, author of "Keeping Time: Readings in
Jazz History
