An extended meditation and dialogue on what the process of recording does to music. Why do people collect recordings? What makes some recordings special? The book draws on Glenn Gould's ideas about recording, pits Aristotle against Plato in terms of how music works on the emotions, and includes several anecdotes and portraits of music fans of Eisenberg's own acquaintance. It's occasionally uneven, but rarely dull. The second edition has new material about the arrival of CDs and online music. ( ) geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
First published in 1987 and now considered a classic, The Recording Angel charts the ways in which the phonograph and its cousins have transformed our culture. In a new Afterword, Evan Eisenberg shows how digital technology, file trading, and other recent developments are accelerating-or reversing-these trends. Influential and provocative, The Recording Angel is required reading for anyone who cares about the effect recording has had-and will have-on our experience of music.
