Summary/Abstract: In previous centuries, music was often confined within the boundaries of a predominant aesthetic. In today’s world, the musical landscape is permeated by a multitude of styles, genres, and aesthetics, offering us a wealth of diverse works to enjoy, ranging from the avant-garde compositions of Lachenmann to the energetic rock of AC/DC and the captivating pop of Beyoncé. This dynamic mosaic of musical expressions, which began at the turn of the 20th century with the simultaneous development of Impressionism, Dodecaphonism, jazz, and other influential movements and genres, brought both liberation and challenges to composers.
