Absolute Music, Mechanical Reproduction
Arved Ashby
Recordings are the primary way we hear classical music, especially the more abstract styles of 'absolute' instrumental music. This book argues that recording technology has transformed our understanding of art music. It reveals how mechanical reproduction has transformed classical musical culture and the very act of listening of everyday life.
