"The Corded Shell: Reflections on Musical Expression", published in
1980 and now out of print, was concerned with the question of how
music comes to have the emotional properties that have been
perceived in it and ascribed to it since antiquity. In that book,
Peter Kivy argued that music possesses expressive properties, not
as powers to arouse emotions in us but, rather, as perceived
qualities of the music itself. In "Sound Sentiment", he augments
his previous work with four entirely new chapters. Incorporating
the complete, corrected text of "The Corded Shell", Kivy brings his
earlier arguments up to date in light of recent work in the field,
and discusses and answers various criticisms. Author note: Peter
Kivy is Professor of Philosophy at Rutgers University and Associate
Editor of the "Journal of Aesthetics and Art Criticism". He
received the Deems Taylor Award of ASCAP for "The Corded Shell".
