Williams Wu Fei What happens when extraordinary creative spiritsmusicians, poets, critics, and scholars, as well as an architect, a visual artist, a filmmaker, a scientist, and a legendary Supreme Court justiceare asked to reflect on their favorite music? The result is Ways of Hearing, a diverse collection that explores the ways music shapes us and our shared culture. These acts of musical witness bear fruit through personal essays, conversations and interviews, improvisatory meditations, poetry, and visual art. They sound the depths of a remarkable range of musical genres, including opera, jazz, bluegrass, and concert music both classical and contemporary. This expansive volume spans styles and subjects, including Pico Iyers meditations on Handel, Arnold Steinhardts thoughts on Beethovens Grosse Fuge, and Laurie Anderson and Edgar Choueiris manifesto for spatial music. Richard Powers discusses the one thing about music hes never told anyone, Daphne Brooks draws sonic connections between Toni Morrison and Ccile McLorin Salvant, and Ruth Bader Ginsburg reveals what she thinks is the sexiest duet in opera. Poems interspersed throughout further expand how we can imagine and respond to music. Ways of Hearing is a book for our times that celebrates the infinite ways music enhances our lives.
