This book is a unique attempt to systematize the latest research on
all that music connotes. Musicological reflections on musically
expressive content have been pursued for some decades now, in spite
of the formalist prejudices that can still hindermusicians and
music lovers. The author organizes this body of research so that
both professionals and everyday listeners can benefit from it - in
plain English, but without giving up the level of depth required by
the subject matter. Two criteria have guided his choice among the
many ways to speak about musical meaning: its relevance to
performance, and its suitability to the teaching context. The
legacy of the so-called art music, without an interpretive approach
that links ancient traditions to our present, runs the risk of
missing the link to the new generations of musicians and listeners.
Complementing the theoretical, systematic content, each chapter
includes a wealth of examples, including the so-called popular
music.
