The Sense of Sound: Musical Meaning in France, 1260-1330 - The New Cultural History of Music Series
Dillon, Emma (Associate Professor of Music, Associate Professor of Music, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia)
The Sense of Sound is a radical recontextualization of French song, 1260-1330. Situating musical sound against sonorities of the city, madness, charivari, and prayer, it argues that the effect of verbal confusion popular in music abounds with audible associations, and that there was meaning in what is often heard as nonsensical.
