Book Synopsis Music as Discourse by : Victor Kofi Agawu

Book excerpt: The question of whether music has meaning has been the subject of sustained debate ever since music became a subject of academic inquiry. This book presents a synthetic and innovative approach to musical meaning which argues deftly for the thinking of music as a discourse in itself.
