Das zweifelnde Gehör. Erwartungssituationen als Module im Rahmen einer performativen Analyse tonaler und posttonaler Musik by Christian Utz

“…Taking seriously the multivalence and contingency of musical structures, the ›performative‹ analyses reveal the richness of divergent paths which a ›doubtful ear‹ (Gottfried Weber) might take when trying to make sense of sound-time processes; the analyses thus also explicitly oppose more recent tendencies to attribute emotive-narrative ›plots‹ to musical processes on the basis of affect psychology.…”
