• Sommario/riassunto: What does it mean for musicians to be true to the works they perform, conduct, and evaluate? To answer the question, this book explores what it means philosophically, musically, and historically for musicians to speak about music in terms of 'works'. It describes how the concept of a musical work emerged, as late as 1800.
