The Sight of Sound: Music, Representation, and the History of the Body

This text examines the social meanings of music as they have been shaped not only by hearing, but also by seeing music in performance. The author is particularly interested in the relation of music to the human body, arguing that musical practices are inseperable from discourses of power.
