Hoe muziek werkt
E-bookNieuwe, uitgebreide editie Hoe muziek werkt is David Byrnes ode aan de muziek, een verslag van een leven in de muziekwereld en een uitleg over hoe en waarom muziek werkt. Byrne, muzikant, ontpopt zich in dit standaardwerk tot historicus, antropoloog en sociaal wetenschapper en biedt ons een schat aan feiten over muziek en muziekvormen, gemengd met zijn eigen ervaringen. Met concrete voorbeelden laat hij zien dat muziek niet alleen in studio’s ontstaat, maar meer nog een logisch en prachtig gevolg is van ons bestaan en onze culturele omstandigheden. Laat je meenemen op een onweerstaanbaar avontuur waarbij Byrne met knappe en bezielde argumenten vertelt over de bevrijdende en stimulerende kracht van muziek.
