""The Beautiful In Music: A Contribution To The Revisal Of Musical Aesthetics"" is a book written by Eduard Hanslick, a 19th-century music critic and philosopher. In this book, Hanslick explores the nature of beauty in music and argues that it is not subjective, but rather can be objectively analyzed and understood. He discusses the role of emotion, form, and expression in music, and examines the relationship between music and other art forms. Hanslick also critiques the prevalent aesthetic theories of his time, including those of Richard Wagner and Friedrich Nietzsche. Overall, ""The Beautiful In Music"" is a seminal work in the field of musical aesthetics and a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the nature of beauty in music.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
