Description:

In this volume, Nick Zangwill develops an argument for the nature of music and our experience of music that foregrounds its aesthetic properties. He focuses on metaphysical issues about aesthetic properties of music, psychological issues about the nature of musical experience, and philosophy of language issues about the metaphorical nature of aesthetic descriptions of music.
