Fortschritt, was ist das…?

Progress is a highly complex phenomenon that is always controversial and usually fraught with delicate ambiguities. It encompasses social, historical, artistic, technological, commercial, and zeitgeisty aspects. At the same time, this topic is never-ending, simply because it concerns us all, again and again. Therefore, it is necessary to take stock of the current discussion and to make the questions that have been raised fruitful for almost all areas of music: compositional practice, reception, media change, the threshold between modernism and postmodernism, the "business," methodology, and hermeneutics. Progress, what is it...? explores these questions with contributions from fifteen authors.
