Beyondmusical works: new perspectives on music ontology and performance

What are musical works? Howare they constructed in our minds? Which material things allow us to speakabout them in the first place? Does a specific way of conceiving musical workslimit their performative potentials? Which alternative, more productive imagesof musical work can be devised?

Virtual Works - Actual Things addresses contemporary music ontologicaldiscourses, challenging dominant musicological accounts, questioning theirauthoritative foundation and moving towards dynamic perspectives devised bymusic practitioners and artist researchers. Specific attention is given to therelationship between the virtual multiplicities that enable the construction ofan image of a musical work and the actual, concrete materials that make such aconstruction possible. With contributions by prominent scholars, this book is awide-ranging and fascinating collection of essays, which will be of greatinterest for artistic research, contemporary musicology, music philosophy,performance studies and music pedagogy alike.
