In this fascinating account of the way in which we understand
music, Laird Addis builds on the idea, first articulated by Susanne
Langer, that passages of music symbolize emotions and other
conscious states. He maintains that the unique bond joining music
and feelings is based on a previously unnoticed affinity between
consciousness and sound. Addis combines a scholar's insight with a
musician's sensibility to make an engaging and convincing statement
that will help readers comprehend music's importance in human
affairs.
