These outstanding personalities we know as our great musical creators. But also, this “autobiography of music” is a landmark of the generation of a new age, a generation which today, with scientific accuracy, penetrates into the mechanism of musical creativity, systematically performs research on it, and wants to authentically capture the art of our great masters of music. The first sense of achievement of the modern music student, then, lies in the development of his ability to listen to music creatively – that ability which since all times represents the timeless, true inner basis of the art of sound.

The Physics of Music

The physics of music in the objective field is based on the metaphysics of music – provided the origin of music, the harmony, the objective basis of music, is perceived – and in the subjective field it is based on self-knowledge.

Furthermore, the physics of music ranges from the technology of subjective musical production – the mechanics of the mind, the mechanics of the intellect, and the mechanics of the senses and their mastery by the inner self – to the physics of musical instruments, and to the entire machinery of musical production, and musical reproduction respectively.

In this context it is necessary to distinguish, from within as well as from outside, between the physics of music and the physics of an acoustic event, because the physics of music, with compelling logic, contains the creative background for producing music, while the physics of the acoustic event does not take into account the important factor of creativity, which alone transforms an acoustic event essentially into music.
