Music Sound and Sensation: A Modern Experience

Fritz Winckel

Dover Books, NY. 1967. First paperback edition. Signature of former owner on flyleaf, otherwise in excellent condition.

From the publisher:

"Related closely to the field of physical acoustics is that of psychoacoustics, which deals with the phenomena of musical hearing from a psychological and aesthetic point of view. One of the major contributors to our understanding of the subject is Fritz Winckel."

A philosophical deep dive into the mysteries of music; how are time and space manipulated through tonality? What does music do to the listener? Lucid and easy reading, and clearly influential on Merzbow's "Pulse Demon" given the cover.
