The Beautiful In Music: A Contribution To The Revisal Of Musical Aesthetics is a book written by Eduard Hanslick, a prominent music critic and philosopher of the 19th century. In this book, Hanslick presents his theory of musical aesthetics, arguing that the beauty of music lies in its form rather than its emotional content. He believes that music should be judged solely on its formal qualities, such as melody, harmony, and rhythm, rather than its ability to evoke emotions. Hanslick also discusses the role of the listener in experiencing music, arguing that the listener's own aesthetic sensibilities play a crucial role in determining the beauty of a musical composition. This book is considered a seminal work in the field of music aesthetics, and has had a significant impact on the way that musicians and critics approach the analysis and interpretation of music.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
