com 1-518-325-6100 Number eight in the "Aesthetics in Music" series, A Different Story: Aesthetics and the History of Western Music is a philosophical examination of aesthetics and criticism of music throughout history--from ancient Greece to the Age of Enlightenment, to 1800's salon music and the twentieth century, including the "aesthetics of rock".
