Music and the Ineffable
Vladimir Jankelevitch
Deals with classical issues in the philosophy of music, including metaphysics and ontology. This book argues that music is not a hieroglyph, nor a language or sign system. It argues that music is 'ineffable', because it cannot be pinned down, and has a capacity to engender limitless resonance in several domains.
200 pages, 7 musical examples.
