Meter as Rhythm: 20th Anniversary Edition de Christopher Hasty

Meter as Rhythm: 20th Anniversary Edition

Autor Christopher Hasty
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 22 iun 2020
Drawing on insights from the modern "process" philosophy of Bergson, William James, and A. N. Whitehead, Christopher Hasty's Meter as Rhythm releases meter from its mechanistic connotations and recognizes it as a concrete, visceral agent of musical expression. Hasty reinterprets oppositions of law and freedom, structure and process, determinacy and indeterminacy to form a theory that engages diverse repertories and aesthetic issues. The revised 20th anniversary edition facilitates the work's current contexts of application, from new subfields in ethnomusicology and music cognition to non-music fields like literary studies, physics, and biology.

Recenzii

[A] significant contribution to the study of the temporal aspects of music.
As a seminal text on the theory of temporality, Christopher Hasty's Meter As Rhythm remains relevant to music scholarship today. In fact I would argue it ismore relevant today than ever. Rhythm has become one of the most important subjects of study today, in music theory, popular music, and world music alike.
Christopher Hasty'sMeter as Rhythmis a foundational text in contemporary music theory. Hasty's accomplishment — still unparalleled in any other existing study of meter, historical or contemporary — was to encourage a complete revision of our core beliefs concerning this musical phenomenon along the lines of process philosophy. With acute sensitivity to the history of ideas surrounding temporality and to the minutiae of music's phenomenal unfolding, Hasty's book offers a distinctive theory of meter. It is a document to which all subsequent theories of musical temporality must respond.

Notă biografică

Christopher Hasty's scholarly work engages problems in the theory and analysis of music from the 16th to the 20th centuries from the standpoint of process and experience. His book Meter as Rhythm (1997) won the Wallace Berry Award from the Society for Music Theory for the Outstanding Music Theory Book of the Year. His current research interests include process philosophy, poetic prosody, and ecological and post-cognitivist psychology.
