Examining Adorno's major writings on the subject of music, the
essays featured in Apparitions revolved around the two crucial
movements in Adorno's creative life; the immediate impact of the
publications of The Philosophy of New Music in 1949; and his
struggle with contemporary music during the 1950s and 60s. This
fascinating collection of essays examines: Adorno's influence in
the realm of popular music and jazz; The Frankfurt School of Blues;
Adorno's theory of the radio; the relationship of corporate power
to methods of music and distribution; and Adorno's alienation from
the musical avant-garde. The contributors to this volume study the
ways in which Adorno's philosophy broke with the dominant tradition
of music criticism in the twentieth century. This will be an
invaluable work for scholars as well as students of Adorno,
