About This Book
"Layers of Musical Meaning confronts the wide-spread conception that music like ordinary language has specific meanings. The main thesis of Layers of Musical Meaning is that music is a language albeit a language that lacks the referential dimension characteristic of an ordinary vocabulary. Thus the only vehicle for musical meaning is the specific grammars that govern musical style." "In addition to tables and illustrations the documentation of the book comprises close to 400 music examples."--Jacket.
