Or that music's aesthetic value derives from its deep structure?. This study traces the widely employed trope of musical depth to its origins in German-language music criticism and analysis. From the Romantic aesthetics of Hoffmann to the modernist theories of Schoenberg, this book discusses music in relation to poetics, subjectivity and German nationalism.
