While interpretation of musical scores is amongst the most frequent
of musical activities, it is also, strangely, one of the least
researched. This collection of essays seeks to remedy this deficit
by illuminating ways in which today's curious musician - interested
in probing beyond the dictates of a faintly understood score - can
engage more deeply and thoughtfully with the act of interpretation.
Skilful musical interpretation draws on a vast range of knowledges.
The chapters of this collection accordingly address a similarly
broad set of issues, including notation, rhetoric, theory,
historiography, performers past and present, instrument builders,
concert presenters, reception history, and more. Written by leading
experts from a variety of musical subdisciplines, these essays are
designed to be accessible and practically relevant for musical
performance. Many of the chapters utilize case studies and, as
such, will be useful for university and conservatory level students
as well as music scholars. The chapters in this book were
originally published as a special issue of the Journal of
Musicological Research.
