THE SECRET OF MUSIC
     
         
 
The Technique of
Conveying Truth in Music


   
 
The mu­sic poet’s deep in­sight into the ex­ist­ing hu­man de­fi­cien­cies is the rea­son why he has suc­ceeded in magi­cally pro­duc­ing this per­fect, crea­tive knowl­edge through mu­sic in his lis­tener – re­gard­less of the quali­fi­ca­tion of the per­for­mer.

 
Directing the Music by Means of the Instrument
 
 
In the score he has in­structed the mu­si­cian only how to use the in­stru­ment – in an al­most me­chani­cal man­ner.
The mu­si­cal script he has used in­deed in­cludes the mean­ing, the se­man­tics, the mu­si­cal sense, but as a script it is not at all re­lated to the se­man­tics as such.

   
 
From the com­poser’s score, there­fore, the mu­si­cian could glean only hints for the use of his in­stru­ment, and by im­ple­ment­ing them in de­tail the mu­si­cal state­ment re­sulted all by it­self.

   
 
Be­ing de­vel­oped by the great poets of mu­sic, this mu­si­cal script, this kind of encipherment for­tu­nately disal­lowed the in­ter­preter to se­ri­ously de­stroy the mu­si­cal state­ment, or to fun­da­men­tally change it.

 
Indestructibility of the Musical Statement
 
 
Given the con­ven­tional way of writ­ing, the me­chani­cal read­ing of the mu­si­cal script rules out such risk. Like­wise, due to its me­chani­cal func­tion, a com­puter is not aware of the mean­ing of the data which it stores and trans­mits, and there is no need for it to be so.
But still it is pos­si­ble and com­mon in­deed, to trans­mit with its help a mean­ing­ful mes­sage.

 
Freedom and Non-Freedom of the Interpretation in Music
 
 
So, the great crea­tors of mu­sic knew how to convey over great spans of time the knowl­edge con­tained in their sound­ing poetry to the lis­tener – de­spite se­vere in­ter­pre­ta­tional in­ade­qua­cies.

 
Music Creators as Wise Knowers of the Musical Scene
 
 
This is not at all to say that a mu­si­cian or an in­ter­preter is not able to have such crea­tive mu­si­cal ex­peri­ence, too; it only means that – con­trary to popu­lar notion – while con­trol­ling the in­stru­ment as pre­scribed to him, he need not be able to make a deep mu­si­cal ex­peri­ence in or­der to in­tro­duce a true mu­sic lover to the re­al­ity of mu­sic.

   
 
This re­minds of stand­ing be­fore a child, wondering and be­com­ing aware of the crea­tive po­ten­tial mani­fest in it, while the child’s uncle, who leads it by the hand, has no sense of such wonder.
