In Philosophy of Song and Singing: An Introduction, Jeanette
Bicknell explores key aesthetic, ethical, and other philosophical
questions that have not yet been thoroughly researched by
philosophers, musicologists, or scientists. Issues addressed
include: The relationship between the meaning of a song's words and
its music The performer's role and the ensuing gender
complications, social ontology, and personal identity The
performer's ethical obligations to audiences, composers, lyricists,
and those for whom the material holds particular significance The
metaphysical status of isolated solo performances compared to the
continuous singing of opera or the interrupted singing of stage and
screen musicals Each chapter focuses on one major musical example
and includes several shorter discussions of other selections. All
have been chosen for their illustrative power and their
accessibility for any interested reader and are readily available.
