The place of music in Rancière’s thought has long been underestimated or unrecognised. This volume responds to this absence with a collection of 15 essays by scholars from a variety of music- and sound-related fields, including an Afterword by Rancière on the role of music in his thought and writing. The essays engage closely with Rancière’s existing commentary on music and its relationship to other arts in the aesthetic regime, revealed through detailed case studies around music, sound and listening. Rancière’s thought is explored along a number of music-historical trajectories, including Italian and German opera, Romantic and modernist music, Latin American and South African music, jazz, and contemporary popular music. Rancière’s work is also set creatively in dialogue with other key contemporary thinkers including Adorno, Althusser, Badiou and Deleuze.

Jacques Rancière has emerged as one of the most influential of contemporary French philosophers writing on aesthetics and its relation to politics today. His work has excited much debate on an international scale, in particular in the visual arts, and film studies. The present volume, a collection of essays on Rancière edited by João Pedro Cachopo, Patrick Nickleson and Chris Stover, is therefore extremely timely. But what is particularly important about this collection is that it focuses on the application of Rancière’s theories to music, an art form that occupies a small but very meaningful position in Rancière’s large output. The range and diversity of the essays in this collection is remarkable. These highly original, creative and innovative contributions towards an understanding of Rancière’s seminal work will undoubtedly serve to stimulate new thinking and debate within the aesthetics and sociology of music in the Anglophone world.
