Description

Peter Kivy brings together a collection of new and recent writings that explore fundamental questions in the philosophy of music. Written in his characteristically elegant and informal style, these essays examine musicology and its historical development, the essential nature of musical works, and how emotion functions within music. Most pieces appear here for the first time, each standing independently whilst contributing to a cohesive examination of music's philosophical dimensions. Whether you follow Kivy's established body of work or encounter his ideas for the first time, this Oxford University Press volume offers accessible, thoughtful reflections that appeal equally to philosophers and musicians seeking deeper understanding of their discipline.
