History Through Music: Perspectives on The Evolution of Consciousness, Spirituality, Education, and Music Appreciation - Softcover
Synopsis
Questions have fueled this book: What is music? Why does music affect us so profoundly? How far back can we trace music's history? Who has shaped the course of music through the ages? How has music changed over time? What socio-cultural role does music play? What are the qualities of tone and why does it matter? In short, what is the story of music? These are some of the many questions addressed in this book as well as those that have remained unanswered in musicology, but demand a response in our probing times. This book tracks the tonal path through the ages right up to the multifaceted present and beyond, while considering the contributions of indigenous and marginalized groups, assessing the scope of Western music's emergence, or gaging the impact of popular music-always with an eye on contextualizing the various eras and styles. This sweeping evolutionary journey of human consciousness, as portrayed through music, explores humanity's profound embeddedness in the spirit, followed by its gradual disconnection and loss over time. Yet, in its place, the inexorable development of the individuality allows for the possibility to reconnect to the spirit out of freedom. The author provides esoteric perspectives that add to contemporary positions. Musical, cultural, and sacred elements are woven together in an accessible, yet thought provoking manner, to meet the lay person as much as those well-versed in music. In History Through Music a vast panorama unfolds for the reader, buoyed by Müller's decades long experience as an educator and musician.
