The Fine Art of Repetition
Essays in the Philosophy of Music
Peter Kivy is the author of many books on the philosophy of art and, in particular, the aesthetics of music. This collection of essays spans a period of some 30 years and focuses on a richly diverse set of issues--ranging from the biological origin of music to the very nature of music itself. Kivy uses no musical notation, so no technical knowledge is required to appreciate his work.
