Musicology and Musical Analysis Linguistics and Discourse Analysis Discourse Analysis in Language Studies

Abstract

This paper argues that, contrary to what many musicologists and classical musicians have maintained, music can, and should, be analysed as discourse. It then surveys a number of approaches to the critical analysis of musical discourse and applies these approaches to a range of examples, including sonatas, advertising jingles and news signature tunes.
