Beyond the Bony Labyrinth

Lodewijk Muns, musicologist, composer and pianist, discusses topics such as music and memory, music and language, and the limits of music, with the piano at his fingertips. Beyond the Bony Labyrinth: because the sound that enters our ears only becomes music when we recognize it. Music appeals to our memory, emotions, imagination, and capacity for language. Philosophy: because it deals with the connections between music and other aspects of life, with clarification, and dispelling smoke screens. This is the English version of the Dutch podcast Voorbij de oren.
