Whether regarded as a perplexing object, a morally captivating
force, an ineffable entity beyond language, or an inescapably
embodied human practice, music has captured philosophically
inclined minds since time immemorial. In turn, musicians of all
stripes have called on philosophy as a source of inspiration and
encouragement, and scholars of music through the ages have turned
to philosophy for insight into music and into the worlds that
sustain it. In this Handbook, contributors build on this legacy to
conceptualize the rich interactions of Western music and philosophy
as a series of meeting points between two vital spheres of human
activity. They draw together key debates at the intersection of
music studies and philosophy, offering a field-defining overview
while also forging new paths. Chapters cover a wide range of musics
and philosophies, including concert, popular, jazz, and electronic
musics, and both analytic and continental philosophy.
