McAuliffe builds on the work of thinkers in both the continental and analytic traditions, consolidating their insight and providing a good deal of his own. Readers will discover that improvisation in music reflects the experience of interpretation in general. * Bruce Ellis Benson, University of Nottingham, UK * This is a ground-breaking volume which widens our understanding of the scope of philosophical hermeneutics. Using the example of musical improvisation, the author argues convincingly that understanding an artistic practice involves both identifying and participating in the spontaneously unfolding rationale that is its heart * Nicholas Davey, Emeritus Professor of Philosophy, University of Dundee, U.K * Beyond the theme of improvisation in music, both classical and jazz, Sam McAuliffe reads philosophical interpreters from philosophical hermeneutics to analytic music aesthetics and including the performers themselves. By offering a phenomenology of improvisation 'in the moment,' this is a study of vital new perspectives. * Babette Babich, Professor of Philosophy, Fordham University, US * A lively exposition of the structure of improvisation in music and everyday life!
