Yes, I remember this. I was just throwing it out there again to see if there were any other comments on the issue. Kivy's Introduction to a Philosophy of Music has been damn near the top of my list for a while, and IT WILL BE READ THIS SUMMER (I'm most curious to check out the bibliography or recommended works). I will be drowning in Adorno soon because he is read heavily where I'm going in the fall. I look forward to it. I already have a firm grasp on the Schopenhauer--am I wrong to think that you threw him in there for my sake?
