The anti-interpretative tendency of this view is in constant exchange, however, with an emphasis on performance as contributing something beyond a mechanical transmission of instructions through its physical and experiential nature. Thus, in the various notes and longer sections brought together here, one finds an obsessive circling around an irresolvable paradox: interpretation can only fail the work, yet only through it can music's true essence be captured. While Adorno at times seems more definite in his pronouncement of a musical score's absolute value, just as a book is read silently, not aloud, his meandering discourse repeatedly shows his inability to cling to that belief. Indeed, it is this quality of uncertainty in his reflections that truly indicates the scope of the discourse and its continuing relevance to musical thought and practice today.
This book collects together Adornos manifold implications for musical interpretation. His reflections lead to a fundamental study of the nature of notation and musical sense. However, it is the quality of uncertainty in his reflections that indicates the scope of the discourse and its continuing relevance to musical thought today.
