MUSICAL PRACTICE AS A FORM OF LIFE - EVA-MARIA ...

How is musical practice connected with everyday life? Eva-Maria Houben shows that performing
music as an activity - indeed  as playing - is a meaningful shift from an approach based on
structural analysis. Musical practice  Eva-Maria Houben contends  can be understood as open and
never finished. Such an emphasis on repetition offers freedom from perfection  productivity 
and purpose  thus allowing meaning to unfold in specific situations  places  and relationships.
Musical practice can become a form of life and a reality in its own right. The study includes
musical examples from the 17th  18th  19th  and 20th centuries as well as contemporary music.
