A Critic of Hans Keller 's ``Whose Authenticity '
[Insert author 's name]
Hans Keller argues that the most basic error of any reflection towards
the authenticity of any musical piece rests on the presumption that
these musical pieces are more authentic than those who reflect upon
them . On the other hand , if one is to talk about the musical genius of
these pieces , the fundamental connection between the one who reflects
and the musical piece goes the opposite way . That is , the musical piece
is less authentic than the one who reflects . Yet at the heart of all
these things one cannot easily dismiss the idea that `understanding ' is
perhaps the key in unlocking the authenticity of any musical piece . Both
the composer and the performer have contradictions in terms of what to
expect with the musical piece , and from these contradictions , as Hans
Keller argues , comes the defining moment of art .
Hans Keller does a god job at expounding on the idea of musical
authenticity , whether from the perspective of the composer , the
performer , or of the audience whether in a live performance or not . The
question of authenticity indeed goes beyond the mere expectations one
can obtain during a live performance . Quite a number of things must be
considered , and it is at such a crucial point Hans Keller sets the pace
for the article . To a certain extent , however , one cannot easily slide
away from the theories that surround the musical realm . Scholars of
music may very well argue that music and all of its various and
intricate components are not just simple elements combined into a single
strand to form a musical piece or song . While many people may begin to
think that the question of authenticity of musical pieces strongly rests
on the composer and the performer , one should also begin to consider the
role of the audience in defining what this authenticity really means .
The question of authenticity with regard to the role of the audience
revolves around the instance of how well the audience relates to or
feels the musical piece . The feelings one can obtain from the musical
piece may vary in many different forms and instances . For the most part ,
it is sufficient enough to assume that a good musical piece naturally
evokes from the audience a certain sense or feeling that one may
entirely or partially relate to something else such as a previous life
experience perhaps . The sense of relation between the musical piece
being presented to the audience and the feelings evoked from those who
bear witness to the piece gives one a rough overview of the authenticity
of songs , for one cannot easily fake emotions from those who hear an
exemplary musical score conducted by an orchestra for instance .
It should be noted that even the contemporaries of such a genius as
Beethoven can be considered as an audience for his works . As Keller
notes , the contemporaries of Beethoven seemed to have very minimal
appreciation of what...
