222 Text How We Listen We all listen to music according to our separate capacities.But,for the sake of analysis,the whole listening process may become clearer if we break it up into its component parts,so to speak.In a certain sense we all listen to music on three separate planes. For lack of a better terminology,one might name these:(1)the sensuous plane,(2)the expressive plane, (3)the sheerly musical plane.The only advantage to be gained from mechanically splitting up the listening process into these hypothetical planes is the clearer view to be had of the way in which we listen. Translation

How We Listen 1 We all listen to music according to our separate capacities. But, for the sake of analysis, the whole listening process may become clearer if we break it up into its component parts, so to speak. In a certain sense we all listen to music on three separate planes. For lack of a better terminology, one might name these: (1) the sensuous plane, (2) the expressive plane, (3) the sheerly musical plane. The only advantage to be gained from mechanically splitting up the listening process into these hypothetical planes is the clearer view to be had of the way in which we listen. Text

Text The simplest way of listening to music is to listen for the sheer pleasure of the musical sound itself.That is the sensuous plane.It is the plane on which we hear music without thinking,without considering it in any way.One turns on the radio while doing something else and absent-mindedly bathes in the sound.A kind of brainless but attractive state of mind is engendered by the mere sound appeal of the music. Translation

2 The simplest way of listening to music is to listen for the sheer pleasure of the musical sound itself. That is the sensuous plane. It is the plane on which we hear music without thinking, without considering it in any way. One turns on the radio while doing something else and absent-mindedly bathes in the sound. A kind of brainless but attractive state of mind is engendered by the mere sound appeal of the music. Text

Text 3 The surprising thing is that many people who consider themselves qualified music lovers abuse that plane in listening.They go to concerts in order to lose themselves.They use music as a consolation or an escape.They enter an ideal world where one doesn't have to think of the realities of everyday life.Of course they aren't thinking about the music either.Music allows them to leave it,and they go off to a place to dream,dreaming because of and apropos of the music yet never quite listening to it. Translation

3 The surprising thing is that many people who consider themselves qualified music lovers abuse that plane in listening. They go to concerts in order to lose themselves. They use music as a consolation or an escape. They enter an ideal world where one doesn't have to think of the realities of everyday life. Of course they aren't thinking about the music either. Music allows them to leave it, and they go off to a place to dream, dreaming because of and apropos of the music yet never quite listening to it. Text

Text 4 Yes,the sound appeal of music is a potent and primitive force,but you must not allow it to usurp a disproportionate share of your interest.The sensuous plane is an important one in music,a very important one,but it does not constitute the whole story. 5 The second plane on which music exists is what I have called the expressive one.Here,immediately, we tread on controversial ground.Composers have a way of shying away from any discussion of music's expressive side. nore.

4 Yes, the sound appeal of music is a potent and primitive force, but you must not allow it to usurp a disproportionate share of your interest. The sensuous plane is an important one in music, a very important one, but it does not constitute the whole story. 5 The second plane on which music exists is what I have called the expressive one. Here, immediately, we tread on controversial ground. Composers have a way of shying away from any discussion of music's expressive side. Text

222 Text Did not Stravinsky himself proclaim that his music was an "object",a "thing",with a life of its own,and with no other meaning than its own purely musical existence?This intransigent attitude of Stravinsky's may be due to the fact that so many people have tried to read different meanings into so many pieces.Heaven knows it is difficult enough to say precisely what it is that a piece of music means,to say it definitely,to say it finally so that everyone is satisfied with your explanation.But that should not lead one to the other extreme of denying to music the right to be "expressive". Translation
