Music, Language, and Cognition is the third collection of Peter
Kivy's seminal papers in the philosophy of music. In essays which
span his earliest work in the field and his more recent
contributions to journals, anthologies, and conference proceedings,
Kivy considers the origin of music, the medium of expression in
opera, the role of music in film, the nature of an "ideal"
performance, and the question of whether absolute music has a
meaning, among other issues. Rich with critical analysis and
informed by the history of both philosophy and music, this volume
will be of interest to anyone who likes not only to listen to
music, but to think about it as well.
