We Are Music : An Existential Journey Toward Infinity, Paperback by Sharpley, John Stephen, ISBN 9811250278, ISBN-13 9789811250279, Like New Used, Free P&P in the UK What is music to us? Modern society, by and large, has come to view music as merely entertainment and commodity. In response, We Are Music: An Existential Journey Toward Infinity provides the reader with a holistic starting point to the study and pursuit of music. Music has unlimited potential to transform and enlighten. This is only impeded if our concepts of music are bound by materialism, physicalism, and reductionism. We Are Music is an attempt to bring music back to a central place in modern society as an agent of positive empowerment, self-actualization, and beyond. Th weaves a narrative that embraces a holistic approach connecting music with science, math, philosophy, history, all the arts, and, above all, spirituality. Our self-perceptions and identities are expanded if not questioned. Music is an infinite field. Any attempt to describe it with words is problematically finite and limited. Here persists the underlying impossibility of my book which both excites and disturbs; the paradox of being and not being. We Are Musicis for those who want to be better musicians and for those who simply want to delve deeper into the power of music. It is a road map for music lovers toward self-realization through music.
