[ Essays on Music ]








What I have learned


This was one of the hardest books the researcher had chosen to read for the research project for that reason it wasn't used nearly as much as other books that talked about Adorno's theories in a much more digestible way. The parts of this book that were read numerous times in order to extract some sort of meaning ended up helping with the overall understanding of Adorno's thinking on music as when it came to reading the more digestible abstracts words like pseudo individualism and Adorno's theories of a caricatured utopian happiness were much more easy to understand.
