Interfaces filosóficas da música

Abstract

This thesis aims at highlighting the development of musical language in a philosophical belief. To this aim, we attempted to verify how the musical language was seen. Under the philosophical vision of the Greeks, with Plato, or the medieval, with Boethius and even in the twentieth century, with Adorno. The methodology adopted for this purpose was to gather important insights into the unfolding of musical language and how it ended up becoming a consumer product in the course of the twentieth century. Adorno with his deep philosophical reflection, is the musical and social center of this study. However, Adorno's reflections on the art of music are of extraordinary philosophical and are used as a warning to specialists in the philosophy of art. Anyway, this view argues for a musical language above the interests of the so-calle culture industry, ie a truly authentic music.
