{"product_id":"9781472446657","title":"Coherence in New Music: Experience, Aesthetics, Analysis","description":"\u003cp\u003eMark Hutchinson outlines a novel concept of coherence within Western art music from the 1980s to the turn of the millennium as a means of understanding the work of a number of contemporary composers, including Thomas Adès, Kaija Saariaho, Toru Takemitsu and György Kurtág, whose music cannot be fitted easily into a particular compositional school or analytical framework. Coherence is understood as a multi-layered phenomenon experienced, above all, in the act of listening, but reliant upon a variety of other aspects of musical experience, including compositional statements, analysis, and connections of aesthetic, and listeners'' own, imaginative conceptualisations. Accordingly, the approach taken here is similarly multi-faceted: close analytical readings of a number of specific works are combined with insights drawn from philosophy and aesthetics, music perception, and critical theory, with a particular openness to novel metaphorical presentations of basic musical ideas about form, language and time.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Routledge","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45528569512015,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":8190.0,"currency_code":"TWD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.tw\/products\/9781472446657","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Taiwan","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
