具体描述
How Music Works is David Byrne’s remarkable and buoyant celebration of a subject he’s spent a lifetime thinking about. He explains how profoundly music is shaped by its time and place, and how the advent of recording technology forever changed our relationship to playing, performing, and listening to music. Acting as historian and anthropologist, raconteur and social scientist, he searches for patterns—and tells us how they have affected his own work over the years with Talking Heads and his many collaborators. Touching on the joy, physics, and the business of making music, he also shows how it is inextricably linked to its cultural and physical context. His range is panoptic, taking us from La Scala to African villages, from his teenage reel-to-reel recordings to his latest work in a home music studio. How Music Works is a brainy, irresistible adventure and an impassioned argument about music’s liberating, life-affirming power.
用户评价
##更适合从业者，对于想从音乐获取灵感的我，有的时候太过于学术了。
评分##关于音乐讲了很多很杂挺有意思的东西，从开篇讲音乐的演奏场馆和传播媒介如何影响和限制音乐形式，到后来讲录音技术的发展及其影响，业界的商业运作，音乐对道德和社会的影响，为何应该普及注重演奏和创作（而非被动消费）的音乐教育，最后一章还试着从历史、形而上学和神经科学的不同角度探讨音乐的起源和本质。作者还讲了自己作为音乐家的很多经历，但因为我对欧美流行乐不熟感觉缺少了很多关键的context不明不白的
评分##The talking head David talking about participation mystique. When he confesses he was diagnosed Aspergers earlier in his career, my heart sunk a bit - no wonder I clicked with his work. We are all oddballs. ????
评分##David Byrne原来这么学术的。。
评分##這本書不僅僅設計得漂亮，內容也非常精彩。像我這樣一個對音樂不甚感冒的人讀起來都覺得收穫巨大，書中提到技術對音樂創作和消費所帶來的影響的部分更是一針見血。
