Sound and Symbol, Volume 2: Man the Musician

by Victor Zuckerkandl

Victor Zuckerkandl continues the development of his philosophy of music, for which he laid the foundation in Sound and Symbol . He regards the phenomenon of musicality as a trait common to all human beings, and analyzes at length the ways in which we perceive music, examining the processes involved in our sensitivity to tone, dynamic tone qualities, musical movement, and the structure of whole musical works.
