Philosophers defined music as a direct expression of human emotion while soloists competed with one another to display machine-like technical perfection at their instruments. When Machines Play Chopin looks at this paradox between thinking about and practicing music to show what three literary works say about automation and the sublime in art. 410 0$aInterdisciplinary German cultural studies ;$v8. 606 $aGerman literature$y19th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aMusical instruments in literature 606 $aMusic in literature 606 $aMusic and literature$zGermany$xHistory$y19th century 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aGerman literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aMusical instruments in literature. 615 0$aMusic in literature. 615 0$aMusic and literature$xHistory 676 $a830.9/3578 700 $aHirt$b Katherine Maree$01048709 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910459244603321 996 $aWhen machines play Chopin$92477166 997 $aUNINA
