Description

Product Description Why does music move us? Lawrence Kramer suggests we should ask this old question in a different way: what is responsible for our response to music, and to what is our response responsible? The essays in this outstanding collection explore this question amongst many others, and by finding cultural meaning in music they exemplify the critical turn in musicology. Sixteen essays have been selected, most of them previously published, from the late 1980s to the present day. These are prefaced by an excellent introduction which traces the intellectual development of critical musicology and discusses the part these essays have had to play in that movement. Review '...it is both stimulating and handy to have so many of Lawrence Kramer’s essays (some are book chapters) within the covers of one book...' Music and Letters 'it is clear to me that Kramer remains a force to be reckoned with, a provocative but responsible thinker, a modest maverick one might say, and a deft wordsmith.' British Journal of Aesthetics About the Author Lawrence Kramer is Professor of English and Music at Fordham University, New York, USA, and is an active composer.
