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. The book explores the concept of beauty in music, examining how it is perceived and experienced by the listener. Hanslick argues that the beauty of music is not found in any extramusical associations or emotions it may evoke, but rather in the intrinsic qualities of the music itself, such as melody, harmony, and form. He also discusses the role of subjectivity in aesthetic judgment and the importance of objective criteria in evaluating musical works. The book is considered a seminal work in the field of musical aesthetics and has had a lasting impact on the way music is analyzed and appreciated.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
