Paperback. Condition: New. What defines a "musical work"? Traditionally, this question has been dominated by Western art music and its reliance on prescriptive scores. Yet, with the rise of recording technologies and the growing influence of genres like jazz, pop, and rock, the very foundations of music's ontology have shifted. In English for the first time, Ontology of the Musical Work: Scored Music, Jazz, Pop, and Rock explores these transformative changes, offering a groundbreaking framework for understanding how music is created, experienced, and valued in contemporary contexts. This book introduces a new theory of music production-one distinct from the conventional paradigms of writing and orality-that emphasizes the unique characteristics of recorded music. Using this perspective, it critiques the traditional focus on scored music and reimagines the concept of the "musical work," bridging the divide between Anglophone analytic aesthetics and Continental philosophical traditions. Ultimately, Ontology of the Musical Work redefines the cultural and aesthetic significance of jazz and popular music, offering fresh insights into their roles within a rapidly evolving musical landscape. A vital contribution to musicology and philosophy, this book equips readers with new tools to understand and appreciate the diverse ways music resonates in our world today.…

Paperback. Condition: New. Analysis of Jazz: A Comprehensive Approach, originally published in French as Analyser le jazz, is available here in English for the first time. In this groundbreaking volume, Laurent Cugny examines and connects the theoretical and methodological processes that underlie all of jazz. Jazz in all its forms has been researched and analyzed by performers, scholars, and critics, and Analysis of Jazz is required reading for any serious study of jazz; but not just musicians and musicologists analyze jazz. All listeners are analysts to some extent. Listening is an active process; it may not involve questioning but it always involves remembering, comparing, and listening again. This book is for anyone who attentively listens to and wants to understand jazz. Divided into three parts, the book focuses on the work of jazz, analytical parameters, and analysis. In part one, Cugny aims at defining what a jazz work is precisely, offering suggestions based on the main features of definition and structure. Part two he dedicates to the analytical parameters of jazz in which a work is performed: harmony, rhythm, form, sound, and melody. Part three takes up the analysis of jazz itself, its history, issues of transcription, and the nature of improvised solos. In conclusion, Cugny addresses the issues of interpretation to reflect on the goals of analysis with regard to understanding the history of jazz and the different cultural backgrounds in which it takes place.Analysis of Jazz presents a detailed inventory of theoretical tools and issues necessary for understanding jazz.…
