Abstract: |
Claudio Monteverdi appears as the key personality of the music in
Galileo's time. His revolution in format and function of the musical
language–from an essentially edonistic creation of purely sonorous
images to a musical language consciously “expressive” of the content
of the words on which it is based–is similar in character to the
influential innovations in scientific thinking operated by Galileo. |
