Music, Encounter, Togetherness
Cook, Nicholas (1684 Professor Emeritus, 1684 Professor Emeritus, University of Cambridge)
Modern Western musical thought tends to represent music as a thing--a pattern, a structure, even an organism--than as a human practice. Music, Encounter, Togetherness focusses on music as something people do, as a mode of encounter between individuals and cultures, and as an agent of interpersonal and social togetherness. It presents music as a utopian dimension of everyday life.
