Tittel *Really Bad Music: Musical and Moral Mistakes*
Monday 20 March 13:15 - 15:00, Salen, ZEB
Abstract:
There are perhaps three kinds of bad music: music that makes you cringe, music that makes you laugh, and music that makes you angry. These three responses to bad music are indicative of the structural and social dimensions of bad music, as well as the ways in which our value judgments, and the emotional and aesthetic reactions that undergird them, are grounded in the social significance of music and music making. The lecture is illustrated with delicious examples from a wide range of musical styles.
