Summary:
Pour définir le sens de la musique, il faudrait revenir aux notions simples de sens, de messages-signaux à ces sens, et de pensées véhiculées par ces signaux. Le point donc de départ et d'arrivée est l'homme. La musique étant un message (véhiculé par la matière) entre la nature et l'homme ou entre les hommes entre eux, elle doit être apte à parler à toute la gamme humaine(...)

Summary:
Pour définir le sens de la musique, il faudrait revenir aux notions simples de sens, de messages-signaux à ces sens, et de pensées véhiculées par ces signaux. Le point donc de départ et d'arrivée est l'homme. La musique étant un message (véhiculé par la matière) entre la nature et l'homme ou entre les hommes entre eux, elle doit être apte à parler à toute la gamme humaine de perception et d'intelligence. De plus, l'homme aimera toujours chanter puisqu'il a une voix, et toujours danser puisqu'il a un corps en liberté. L'expansion prodigieuse du jazz, avec ses rythmes de danse puissants et ses mélodies brutales, qui contrastaient avec la somnolence des musiques légères ou folkloriques, en est une démonstration. Un courant constant entre la nature biologique de l'homme et les constructions de l'intelligence doit être établi, sinon les prolongements abstraits de la musique actuelle risquent de s'égarer dans un désert de stérilité.

Summary:
Hearing has traditionally been regarded as the second sense—as somehow less rational and less modern than the first sense, sight. This publication explodes this myth by reconstructing the process through which the ear came to play a central role in modern culture and rationality.

John Cage's disdain for records was legendary. He repeatedly spoke of the ways in which recorded music was antithetical to his work. In Records Ruin the Landscape, David Grubbs argues that, following Cage, new genres in experimental and avant-garde music in the 1960s were particularly ill suited to be represented in the form of a recording.

Le chant de l’oiseau-lyre d’Australie, les vents de Patagonie, les flûtes sacrées Aré’ aré des Îles Salomon, les vibrations des bâtiments de nos villes ou les louanges exaltées des pêcheurs de perles de Bahreïn ne sont que quelques exemples des innombrables sons et musiques abordés dans cet ouvrage consacré à la pratique du field recording, de l’enregistrement de terrain. Tout au long du xxe siècle, des hommes ont parcouru le monde afin de capter des curiosités sonores pour des raisons scientifiques, patrimoniales et esthétiques. Ce sont des audio-naturalistes, des collecteurs de musique traditionnelle, mais aussi des compositeurs avides de découvrir un nouveau matériau musical. Les microphones sont leurs outils, voire leurs instruments, l’écoute est leur méthode d’approche. En sortant du studio, ils prennent le risque de se confronter à l’imprévisible, à l’incontrôlable, au fragile parfois. Ils se nomment Alan Lomax, Chris Watson ou encore Luc Ferrari. Cent disques rendent ici compte de leur quête, toujours en cours, du « chant du monde ». Une riche introduction et trois interviews de figures majeures du field recording (Jean C. Roché, Bernard Lortat-Jacob et Peter Cusack) complètent cette anthologie.
