Ways of Listening: An Ecological Approach to the Perception of Musical Meaning
Clarke, Eric F. (Professor of Music, Professor of Music, University of Oxford)
Explores musical meaning, music's critical function in human lives, and the relationship between listening and musical material. This work outlines an "ecological approach" to understand the perception of music, arguing that the way we hear and understand music is not a function of our brain structure or of the musical codes given to us.
