A RECONSIDERATION OF GESTALT CONCEPTS AS DESCRIPTIVE METAPHORS IN MUSIC ANALYSIS

ABSTRACT. We shall focus here on the development of the aesthetic and creative dimensions of Gestalt therapy, metaphorical descriptions of the musical experience, and the relationship between the emotional and the aesthetic experience of music. Indurkhya says that the representations emerge from interaction (emergence of representation is a continually ongoing process that pervades all aspects of cognition). Have claims that the dynamics of music can create the experience of movement in depth (intensity is partly created by the strength or volume of the music). pp. 185–190
