The essays in Sound Judgment span the full career of Richard
Leppert, from his earliest to work that appears here for the first
time, on subjects drawn from early modernity to the present
concerning music both popular and classical, European and North
American. Noted for his path-breaking interdisciplinary scholarship
on music and visual culture, the collection includes key essays on
music's visualization in art practices in virtually all visual
media, including film. The fourteen essays comprising this volume
demonstrate Leppert's many contributions to critical musicology,
particularly in the areas of aesthetics as well as social and
intellectual history, all of it grounded in a heterodox body of
critical and cultural theory, with the work of Theodor W. Adorno
particularly noteworthy. The collection is preceded by an
introduction in which Leppert traces his intellectual development,
defined in large part by the social, cultural, and political
upheavals of the 1960s and their aftermath both in the academy and
in society at large.
