2012 | University of Chicago Press | ISBN: 9780226333274 | 1.55 MB | 296 Pages | PDF
From our first social bonding as infants to the funeral rites that mark our passing, music plays an important role in our lives, bringing us closer to one another. In The Music between Us, philosopher Kathleen Marie Higgins investigates this role, examining the features of human perception that enable music’s uncanny ability to provoke, despite its myriad forms across continents and throughout centuries, the sense of a shared human experience.

Guitar Zero: The Science of Becoming Musical at Any Age by Gary Fred Marcus EPUB screenshot
2012 | Penguin Random House | ISBN: 9781101552285 | 785 KB | 272 Pages | EPUB
On the eve of his fortieth birthday, a professor of no discernible musical talent learns to play the guitar and investigates how anyone of any age might master a new skill.
Just about every human being knows how to listen to music, but what does it take to make music? Is musicality something we are born with? Or a skill that anyone can develop at any time? If you don’t start piano at the age of six, is there any hope? Is skill learning best left to children or can anyone reinvent him-or herself at any time?

Authenticities: Philosophical Reflections on Musical Performance by Peter Kivy PDF screenshot
1995 | Cornell University Press | ISBN: 9781003125075 | 20.7 MB | 320 Pages | PDF
How are we to assess the current popularity of period instruments and early-music performance? For musicians and audiences alike, the "historical authenticity" movement has increasingly influenced the performance of classical music. It has given us, claims Peter Kivy, "new and rewarding ways of listening to our musical reportory (as well as silly, vulgar, and unrewarding ones)." He believes that theory now overrules the ear in arguing for and justifying particular aesthetic decisions.

Signs of Music: A Guide to Musical Semiotics by Eero Tarasti PDF screenshot
2002/2012 (Reprint) | Mouton De Gruyter | ISBN: 9783110899870 | 11.1 MB | 232 Pages | PDF
Music is said to be the most autonomous and least representative of all the arts. However, it reflects in many ways the realities around it and influences its social and cultural environments. Music is as much biology, gender, gesture - something intertextual, even transcendental. Musical signs can be studied throughout their history as well as musical semiotics with its own background. Composers from Chopin to Sibelius and authors from Nietzsche to Greimas and Barthes illustrate the avenues of this new discipline within semiotics and musicology.

An Orientation to Musical Pedagogy: Becoming a Musician-Educator by Birch Browning PDF screenshot
2017 | Oxford University Press | ISBN: 9780199928200 | 7.99 MB | 240 Pages | PDF
Novice music teachers and music education students struggle to form an identity that synthesizes 'musician' with 'music teacher,' and to separate themselves from their prior experiences to think critically about music-making and music instruction. Throughout this text, readers are encouraged to both reject and reflect upon their prior experience and are provided with new frameworks of understanding about both music-making and music instruction, as they form a new personal philosophy of musicianship and pedagogy. Ultimately, the purpose of this text is to provide foundational knowledge for subsequent learning as students become both musician and music pedagogue.

Musical Stimulacra: Literary Narrative and the Urge to Listen by Ivan Delazari PDF screenshot
2020 | Routledge | ISBN: 9780367688189 | 10.5 MB | 188 Pages | PDF
The title coinage of this book, stimulacra, refers to the fundamental capacity of literary narrative to stimulate our minds and senses by simulating things through words. Musical stimulacra are passages of fiction that readers are empowered to transpose into mental simulations of music. The book theorizes how fiction can generate musical experience, explains what constitutes that experience, and explores the musical dimensions of three American novels: William T. Vollmann’s Europe Central (2005), William H. Gass’s Middle C (2013), and Richard Powers’s Orfeo (2014).
