Art forms tend to mirror themselves in each other. In order to
understand literature and fine arts better, we often turn to music,
speaking of the 'tone' in a book and of the 'rhythm' in a painting.
In attempts to understand music better, we turn instead to the
narrative arts, speaking of the 'story' of a musical piece. This
book focuses on two examples of such conceptual mirror reflexivity:
narrativity in jazz music and musicality in spoken theatre. These
intermedial metaphors are shown to be significant to the practice
and reflection of performing artists through their ability to
mediate holistic views of what is considered to be of crucial
importance in artistic practice, analysis, and education. This
exploration opens up possibilities for new theoretical and
practical insights with regard to how the borderland between
temporal art forms can be conceptualized. The book will be of
interest not only to scholars of music and theatre, but also to
those who work in the fields of aesthetics, intermedial studies,
cognitive linguistics, arts theory, communication theory, and
cultural studies.
