"Musical practice is permeated by valuation and judgment. Audiences judge performers and composers; performers dote on and honour certain works while disregarding others; composers respect audiences or despise them. How do such valuations come about? Why do some valuations prevail while others fade into oblivion? And which standards, if any, underlie them? Such matters must be explored ever anew..." This thinking drives the series Studien zur Wertungsforschung from the Institut für Musikästhetik, which delves deeper into the world of music than most would ever imagine. The latest volume published by Universal Edition is number 56 in the series. (Paperback, 496pp., German text)
