ISBN:  9781681777443 (hardcover) 1681777444 (hardcover) 9781643132273 (paperback) : 164313227X (paperback) Description:  viii, 344 pages : illustrations, music ; 24 cm Contents:  Prelude : Insights from the blind -- How does music work? -- The zygonic conjecture -- How we construct musical meaning -- We are all musical -- Composing, performing and listening -- Postlude : Notes compared. Requests:  0 Summary:  Comparing Notes explores what music is, why all of us are musical, and how abstract patterns of sound that might not appear to mean anything can, in fact, be meaningful. From pitch and rhythm to dynamics and timbre, the author shows how all the elements of music cohere through the principle of imitation to create an abstract narrative in sound that we instinctively grasp, whether listening to Bach or the Beatles.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Art, Music & Recreation 781.23 Oc Checked In Add Copy to MyList
