Beschrijving
Profound theoretical and philosophical approach to contemporary music
'Unsayable Music' presents theoretical, critical and analytical reflections on
key topics of contemporary music including acoustic, electroacoustic and
digital music, and audiovisual and multimedia composition. Six essays by
Paulo C. Chagas approach music from different perspectives such as philosophy,
sociology, cybernetics, musical semiotics, media, and critical studies.
Chagas's practical experience, both as a composer of contemporary music
and sound director of the Electronic Music Studio of Cologne, nourishes
his observations on the specific creativity that emerges with the use of the
technical apparatus, the development of the electronic music studio, the
different aesthetics of electroacoustic music, and the forms of audiovisual
and multimedia composition. The title 'Unsayable Music' is a reference to
Wittgenstein, who suggested that sound is only the surface of music and
that the musical work conceals something more profound that can hardly
be described by philosophical models or scientific theories.
