Music, Time, and Its Other explores the relation between the
enigmatic character of our temporal experiences and music's
affective power. By taking account of competing concepts of time,
Savage explains how music refigures dimensions of our experiences
through staking out the borderlines between time and eternity. He
examines a range of musical expressions that reply to the
deficiency born from the difference between time and an order that
exceeds or surpasses it and reveals how affective tonalities of
works by Bach, Carolan, Debussy, Schoenberg, Messiaen, and Glass
augment our understanding of our temporal condition. Reflections on
the moods and feelings to which music gives voice counterpoint
philosophical investigations into the relation between music's
power to affect us and the force that the present has with respect
to the initiatives we take. Music, Time, and Its Other thus sets
out a new approach to music, aesthetics, politics, and the critical
roles of judgment and imagination.
