"Spanish" is not an "emotional effect."
- I see what the author is saying, the phrygian mode does have a spanish feel to it. Perhaps there is a better way to word this. Is there anything we can add to this regarding psychoacoustics?
This article needs some work. --

See, I don't think this is at all helpful in this setting. This a) should be under psychoacoustics, and b) should not be so limiting. If the entire length and breadth of the Philosophy of Music is if the Medieval scales provide a feel - what about serialism, atonalism, tonality? what about timbre? texture? feel of the music? One could play in tonal major (using medieval scales ionian), but have it in 61/3 over 2/8 and it would undoubtedly not feel happy or bouncy.
Secondly, why the list of musicians at the bottom - who are they? Why are they there? What does Steve Albini have to do with it - if we want a list of people who have said something about the psychoacoustic nature of music, then we must list Nigel Tufnel, who said Dminor is the saddest key. Who are we kidding? 68.11.81.129 02:54, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
I removed this sentence:
Thus, it is possible that something like heavy metal is better music than say classical Mozart.
If anyone really thinks it belongs in such an article (and if anyone finds it genuinely valid...), then feel free to replace it. However, I think it's safe to say (without reverting back to the black and white "high" and "low" divisions of music) that this statement is not fair to classical form.
-- Without getting into a debate, what the author is referring to is that "good" music is entirely subjective... that being said this entire article needs to be rewritten - there's already an article on music aesthetics and psychoacoustics, while this article says little about what such phiosophers as Adorno and Aristotle wrote concerning music. 129.81.180.29 17:41, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
"Music philosophy" as the article presently defined it is just philosophy of music. "Music philosophy" as the article's original author defined it is a particular area of study within philosophy of music. Regardless, I can't find any literature on "music philosophy" at all. There is, however, an incredibly extensive literature on philosophy of music. Hence the redirect.-- Colindownes ( talk) 09:26, 14 November 2008 (UTC)
