O Ouvido Pensante

Rate this book
Esta obra é uma coletânea de ensaios sobre a concepção sonora e musical de seu autor, o músico canadense Murray Schafer. Reunidos em seis grandes grupos temáticos, os textos descrevem a maneira a que Murray, que é professor de música, recorre para despertar seus jovens alunos para o que ele chama de 'paisagem sonora', e não apenas para a música como esta é cotidianamente compreendida. Cunhado pelo autor, o conceito de 'paisagem sonora' abrange sonoridades em geral, abarcando o inestimável leque de ruídos urbanos e naturais.
