These lectures are an unusual treasure, since they are the only two groups of lectures that Steiner gave primarily on music, other than the lecture cycle for the tone eurythmy course, \u003ci\u003eEurythmy as Visible Music\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the first group of three lectures, given in 1906, Steiner explains why music affects the human soul so powerfully. Music has always held a special position among the arts because it is the only art form whose archetype, or source, lies not in the physical world, as with architecture, sculpture, and painting, but purely in the spiritual world-the soul's true home. Music thus directly expresses through tones the innermost essence of the cosmos, and our sense of wellbeing when we hear music comes from a recognition of our soul's experience in the spiritual world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the remaining lectures, given in 1922 and 1923, Steiner discusses our experience of musical intervals and shows how it has undergone profound changes during the course of evolution. The religious effects of music in ancient times and the union of music with speech are considered, as well as the origin of musical instruments out of imaginations that accompanied singing. New insights are offered on the nature of the major and minor modes and on future directions of musical development.\u003c\/p\u003e\"Major and minor keys, this strange bond between music and human subjectivity, the actual inner life of feeling--insofar as this life of feeling is bound to the earthly corporeality--came into being only in the course of the fourth post-Atlantean epoch and are related to the experience of the third. The difference between major and minor keys appears; the subjective soul element relates itself to the musical element.\" -- \u003cb\u003eRudolf Steiner\u003c\/b\u003e (lect. 5)\u003cp\u003eThis volume is a translation of 7 lectures (of 8) in \u003cem\u003eDas Wesen des Musikalischen und das Tonerlebnis im Menschen, \u003c\/em\u003e published by Rudolf Steiner-Nachlaftverwaltung, Dornach, 1969 (GA 283).\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 108\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.3 x 8.3 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 13, 1983\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42611180503136,"sku":"9780880100748","price":29.06,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0598\/1922\/9280\/files\/L29DR2swNkp6a2FSbUIxNDJLMG1jUT09.webp?v=1772060157","url":"https:\/\/bijoucc.myshopify.com\/products\/the-inner-nature-of-music-and-the-experience-of-tone-selected-lectures-from-the-work-of-rudolf-steiner-cw-283-paperback-1","provider":"CARIBBEAN CONNECT","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
