Extract

What is music? In my view, this is the most basic question in all musicologies, be it the so-called systematic and comparative musicology (according to Guido Adler's founding article of 1885), the historical musicology of “Western art music,” ethnomusicology, or other existing as well as possible musicologies, as far as they are oriented towards a generalizable term such as the term “music” is.
