The Sense of Music

Victor Zuckerkandl (1896-1965), born in Vienna, came to the United States in 1940 and taught at Wellesley College, The New School, and St. John's College in Annapolis, where he developed the new approach to music presented in this book. His publications include Sound and Symbol: Music and the External World Princeton/Bollingen, 1969). A continuation of Sound and Symbol was completed before his death. It has been translated by Norbert Guterman and published as Man the Musician (Bollingen XLIV:2).
