Hermeneutics and Music Criticism forges new perspectives on
aesthetics, politics and contemporary interpretive strategies. By
advancing new insights into the roles judgment and imagination play
both in our experiences of music and its critical interpretation,
this book reevaluates our current understandings of music's
transformative power. The engagement with critical musicologists
and philosophers, including Adorno, Gadamer, and Ricoeur, provides
a nuanced analysis of the crucial issues affecting the theory and
practice of music criticism. By challenging musical hermeneutics'
deployment as a means of deciphering social values and meanings,
Hermeneutics and Music Criticism offers an answer to the
long-standing question of how music's expression of moods and
feelings affects us and our relation to the world.
