Listening according to mood is likely to be what most people do
when they listen to music. We want to take part in, or even be part
of, the emerging world of the musical work. Using the sources of
musical history and philosophy, Erik Wallrup explores this
extremely vague and elusive phenomenon, which is held to be
fundamental to musical hearing. Wallrup unfolds the untold musical
history of the German word for 'mood', Stimmung, which in the 19th
century was abundant in the musical aesthetics of the
German-Austrian sphere. Martin Heidegger's much-discussed
philosophy of Stimmung is introduced into the field of music,
allowing Wallrup to realise fully the potential of the concept.
Mood in music, or, to be more precise, musical attunement, should
not be seen as a peculiar kind of emotionality, but that which
constitutes fundamentally the relationship between listener and
music. Exploring mood, or attunement, is indispensable for a
thorough understanding of the act of listening to music.
